    this is incredibly stupid. of course it matters if players score. this isn't one sided basketball. this isn't some video game. just stop it with your grade school level excuse. amazing people still dont understand how difficult it is to beat a GS team at this point

    Lmao... we are over the cap by 20+ million even without anderson. We cant sign any of those players. We csn only offer them like 4 million a season with tax payer exception.

    Alot of those are in their prime players . They arent comin here for near vet minimum

    As I recall, Luc and JJ did play "for just a few minutes" in the playoffs, and it went very badly.

    We aren't champions, so we need to improve. LeBron offers the greatest improvement of all the options out there.

    rockets have a rare opportunity so you have to try to get lebron no matter what.

    Your logic is that as long as somebody knows more than another person, every action he takes is perfect. Idiot logic.

    MDA had never been in a finals-esque series vs that kind of team before. He has barely more experience with the situation than you or I.

    An inexperienced individual can absolutely see mistakes that someone superior to them makes. Are you telling me JR’s decision in game 1 was correct and we have no right to speak because he is better at bball than us? LMFAO

    Actually it is an excuse, you’re comparing Harden with one of the most physically gifted players of all time, lol.

    “Not having enough money to go on that expensive vacation isn’t an excuse not to go!! Bill Gates has billions!!”

    If we had Nikola Mirotic against GSW instead of Ryan Anderson, even CP3's injury wouldn't be enough to stop us.

    I remember the middle of the season, when Anderson was at his best and what Nikola could be here. We were totally unstoppable.

    Really? It matters? Then how come we built our leads without Ariza or Luc scoring in games 6 and 7

    You have 5 players on the court and 1 ball. If you have a player who is an all time leader in usage rate and efficiency it gives you the luxury of playing other players with offensive limitations. Learn something about basketball, kid.

    Of course it is difficult to beat GS. That is why you can’t leave an inferior 7 man rotation on the floor the entire game while their players who are collectively better are getting rest and have a talent + energy advantage.

    Let's put it this way. If you stuck on an island with just you and your girlfriend and she is a Victoria secret model would you like another girl like a Playboy playmate as well to be stuck there with you?

    It went fine with johnson in game 7, but was too late since guys were residually fatigued from game 6. Harden played 35 of the first 36 min in game 6

    yeah, you do not need him, but every one of the 30 NBA teams would love to have him.

    So you're telling me that I have to feed both of them. Okay, I will agree to the 2nd super hot girl. I'm just a giver like that.

    Some people just don't understand and get how scary Golden State is. They are a team full of all stars. That team with 4 out of the hampton 5 will probably get inducted to the Hall of fame... (and at this rate way before Rudy T will ever get in". If we don't get Lebron the only other player that can take us over the top would be Anthony Davis or possibly the greek freak. Even with names like Kevin Love, this team would still be considerable under dogs. I guarantee the Warriors will also be looking to upgrade their bench this offseason. A guy like Lebron means other players at vet minimums would donate their kidneys, left testicle and pay us to play in Houston for a chance at a title. If Lebron truly has the desire to win a Ring, Houston is his chance to immediately contend and win. Any other city besides Boston or just joining Golden State itself, Lebron would have no true chance of winning. If he goes to L.A. then I wish him the best but we all know where his mentality is then and that is just pathetic and he might as well retire or play baseball.

    We don’t need Zhou Qi
    But he’s on the roster

    I’m sure like 0 Real Rockets fans would reject LeBron

    It’s not about Hardens legacy
    It’s about the Rockets legacy

    We need Bron, unless you expect CP3 to last through the playoff. History has shown you can not count on CP3 to stay healthy in the playoff.

    Look at the Warriors. Iggy , Curry, Klay all hurt...no problem. That's why we need Bron. CP3 get hurts, we still beat the Warriors if we have Bron.

    No Bron, we done when Cp3 gets hurt like he always does and Harden goes 6 for 20 and have 15 turnovers like he does
