    Would it be cool to read a news flash that Ime has been fired? Still waiting.

    I'm so frustrated that they haven't done ANYTHING to even try to improve this obviously very flawed roster. It's baffling. Truly incomprehensible to me that they've just stayed the course with this group.

    You often see posters on the board returning from ESPN/Twitter/reddit getting mad like teens because someone said some negative **** about the rockets.

    You also have some guys who have somehow convinced themselves that we're a laughing stock for decades and have a high number of embarrassing incidents. Saw it the other day regarding KD files, someone listed out incidents going back decades as though fans of other teams even remember any of that stuff.

    Just lots of catastrophizing. A little more next man up mentality wouldn't hurt the fanbase.

    Honest question. Would D'Angelo Russell be a good fit here? I think he has a couple more days until he clears waivers. The Rockets have until March 1, to add a player, so they can be eligible for the playoffs I think. I maybe wrong though.

    what’s the point if our coach won’t play the guys who can help. All he wants to do is play guys with good defense Thant have 0 offensive game and wonder why we can’t score in the 4th.

    You see Perk? :D

    1. They lack high basketball IQ
    2. They lost their identity. They used to be a defensive-minded team. I don’t know what the hell happened.
    3. They play individual, selfish basketball. They play my-turn basketball offensively. You watch Amen, he wanna go one-on-one and show the world he can go get a bucket. No structure to their offense. Same with Sengun.
    4. Rockets had the audacity and nerve to not pick up the phone and call the Milwaukee Bucks to try and get Giannis. They had the audacity to not pick up the phone. They had the audacity to say all their young guys are untouchable. Have they lost their damn mind?!
    5. They’ll be sent home in the first round. I guarantee you that.

    Perkins is the worst, but even he can see that this brand of basketball is not gonna cut it.
