    During Tillman's tenure, our goal was to win a ring. He's a bad owner if that's your goal.

    Our goal now is to assemble the crappiest group of players ever known to man. We want guys from the YMCA that will play for the league minimum but will be require to donate half of their paycheck back to Tillman.

    Who is a better man for the job other than Tillman?

    Get her done Till!!!!

    Yea... but we also want an advanced FO that can scout and find gems. That's not a knock on Stone, but this is the time to increase the scouting/analytics budget/staff.

    No, but he bought the team, he has the RIGHT to reset the culture, which obviously was NOT working.

    Of course. It’s hard to tank with a winning culture, which is why he followed the DD plan. Trade everything that produces wins for things that produce tax savings.

    thanks.

    I would respect him more if he didnt come out to the media talking about championships being a priority then turn right back around and cut costs.

    He had no business buying this team and every fan will suffer for it.

    You guys are still harping on taxes when dude clearly didn't want to be here. You waste your money on a ungrateful superstar that folds in the end anyway. Then want somebody to pay double for a losing product. Like that would have changed Harden's mind. LMFAO

    it's like i say in politics... jus bc the 1 guy is obviously wrong - doesnt mean the other guy is right...
    and just bc somebody is a crappy person - doesnt mean everything they do is crappy...

    Tilman may do some things right... but he's still an overall crappy owner...

    Trying to reset the culture from one that pandered to a narcissistic diva is a good thing...
    Trading away tangible assets for peanuts to save a few bucks is obviously a bad thing as far as trying to produce a winning team...

    The run was over & they got a good deal for a guy that wanted out. They got 2 trips to the West Finals but the Warriors were just better. It happens. Time to rebuild.

    As the owner of the Houston Rockets, Tilman is a straight idiot and dumbass. Anyone that has the same logic as him when it comes to running a professional sports organization are in the same exact category. And there's a number of them on this board

    Rumor on the street is Tilman wants to keep this years draft pick by ensuring we get a top 4 draft pick.

    Very smart man. Some of you need to Shut Up and Listen.

    He should have kept Morey and made him Harden. I would love to see what Morey could do with a full fledge tank job rebuild.
