    Man, the hype felt so real. The day we [out of nowhere] traded for CP3, the Melo rumors started immediately. Back when the perception was that he was still a difference maker.

    It felt like it was our time.

    ….and then it never happened. Until it finally did. And when it did, yikes. Outplayed by Gary Clark.

    I thought he was washed... like I had higher hopes when Francis came back in 2009 or so

    That's why the 76ers are a dumpster fire. Morey bots are saying the same stuff they said here, owner is cheap and lux tax savings but never looking at Morey who caused the max contracts

    We didn't even give Melo a chance, honestly one of the weirdest free agency adventures in Rockets history.

    Have to wonder if cutting Melo after 10 games was driven by Harden and that's what created the rift with Chris Paul.

    Of course this all could have been avoided if Morey just kept Trevor Ariza and ran it back but no, he had to go with Melo and Ennis on minimums.

    And all these **** decisions is how we ended up with GODDAMMIT SILAS. No wonder the liar left town.

    THIS was one of the reasons Morey needed to go. He was too cocky & catered too much to Harden

    CF turned on Melo earlier than Morey, and it was linsane.
