    He got to stop with the whining. Refs pay attention to that and charge for it.

    They got franchise player Wemby. A likely future all star in Harper. And a fringe star player in Castle. They have solid role players and a decent coach.

    But really, Wemby.

    we can’t defend Wemby

    we can’t defend any of their guards

    we give them open threes

    I want no parts of this team in a playoff series

    we’d get smoked

    Because you don’t read or critical think let me refresh your memory. I said its a personnel/roster issue more than coaching. You can Malone or Pat Riley in here and it doesn’t change the fact this team is flawed in it’s construction.

    We just suck.

    Both the Pistons and Spurs are more quickly than us on rebuilding.

    Even the Hornets are better than us.

    I totally understand where you're coming from, but man would that feel sad if we traded both Jalen and then Alpi.

    The two of them were the first lights in maybe the darkest period of Rockets fandom in the last 40 years, and it always sucks to see homegrown guys leave.

    Our ceiling really isn't high enough as it is now, though...

    We just can't shoot, couple that with low BB IQ plus horrible lapses in defense...and there's Alpy

    So much so that the opposing teams clear flopping is just overlooked. He has to play with a brain

    They have a clear culture that extends from the top of the organization - all the way down to the interns. They target and hire people that fit that personality and culture and let them do their jobs.

    They actually have a lot of people that understand basketball at a high level and they work very hard. They pay attention to detail.

    Now compare that to the Rockets.
