2018-2019 Houston Rockets


Recommended Posts

Worse than last year. Melo is trash. Same old song and dance. Good....but not good enough to beat GS. But, but, if Chris....shut up. Just shut up. Chris Paul got hurt. Houston blew double digit leads in the second half without him. They didn't beat GS. And now they are 3 steps back from last year, meanwhile GS added another All Star. Houston gets as far as the bracket keeps them away from GS.

Note to CP3: if you want to play tough guy on the floor, best do it with someone other than Rondo.   He’s not a dude that’s going to let you slide with that stuff.  

Rockets win. They will be good this year but we are going to give up 110 a game.

Melo isn’t the problem. I feel like they don’t care as of now

i don't think he has been the main problem, or a big problem as of now. Harden and Paul missing games doesn't help, but they are lethargic. Very little energy. It is as if they think they are going to walk to a WCF. If they don't pick it up, they won't be in the playoffs, they will be in the lottery.

We don’t need Melo to be the New York Melo. Just need him to do his part and score about 12 a game or so.

 

Rockets are finally healthy on a 3 game winning streak and we are right back in the swing of things

Slow down there buddy. Rockets are getting they’re groove. Harden back in MVP mode

Harden can only do so much. This roster just stinks. 40 million to Chris Paul for 3 more years may end up being one of the worst contracts in Houston's sport history. 

I expect them to "turn it around" and make the playoffs. But there is not way you can think this roster has any chance to win the West

The Rockets have signed Austin Rivers the plot thickens.

That’s not a bad signing at all. 10 points off the bench.

 

Rockets are getting back to championship level now. Harden back to back MVP. I’m calling it now

James Harden for the win over the Warriors! Best game I've seen in a long time! Rockets beat the Warriors and the refs, short handed I might add. 

Quick question. How is Draymond allowed to yell, cuss, and act like a complete fool all game and not catch a tech? I can't stand him or his antics and I'm glad Harden had some words for him after the game winner.

No CP3,No Gordon no problem!

This dude is on fire right now. With a healthy squad we can go to the finals. Chris Paul’s hamstrings still worries me.

the Austin Rivers signing was a huge addition to our offense.

 

Question:could James Harden come down as the 2nd best best Rocket of all time? If he bring s a championship, I say yes

The Rockets are 3-0 against the Warriors this season... two of these games were without CP3 and the other one was without The Beard. - The Warriors had all SIX of their recent All-Stars play tonight, but still lost to Rockets team whose best player (The Beard) didn't even play in the game. If Rockets can play that style like they did last night they can win it all

    • That there’s not a single thread on the fact that the Republican nominee is on trial for paying off a porn star with whom he had an affair while the future First Lady was carrying said nominee’s child.    I remember back when the dirty, no-good Dems sacked Gary Hart over something similar. Same thing with John Edwards and later Anthony Weiner.    But y’all keep pretending God is on your side, lol. 
    • I hear what you’re saying, BUT… that hammers the hell out of poor people and the ones with multiple properties don’t eat any more than the poor ones. In fact, you’d basically just be taxing a lot of peoples’ EBT payments. The government  can’t get ahead by taxing what they’re already borrowing to give to people.    I think well off people should pay more… but the scale as it exists is broken.    For the sake of argument, my mom’s house in Groves is valued at $125k. 2/1/1 on a slab.  Her tax bill is $850/year. Without exemptions, her bill would be 3200. It’s right on JCAD’s website. The problem is this…. If someone tries to rent out an identical house, they’d expect to get, what… $1200/month? If you take into account that homeowners/windstorm/flood is a minimum of another $2k per year, you’d need $5k a year just to cover the taxes and insurance. That’s four months (1/3 of the year) just to cover those costs, not counting a potential mortgage payment. But then everybody cries about how expensive rents are… you can’t tax the hell out of non-homestead property to make up for gifts given to homeowners in the form of big tax cuts. It just doesn’t work.    Ten acres in Lumberton? I’ve got a buddy with 10 acres in Lumberton on HWY 69. Prime property… it’s his retirement plan. Sale it one day and cash in. The CAD decided that it no longer qualifies for a special use valuation (timber) and stripped his “exemption.” His 2023 tax bill jumped from $25 to $22,000…. It’s insane.  
    • I’m curious what happened… they aren’t even in full pads yet. 
    • They’re going to have win almost all remaining games and get finals of tournament to think about an at-large. When LU was in the WAC, Grand Canyon got an at-large after New Mexico St came out of nowhere to win conference tournament. Grand Canyon had a dang good resume that year. It can happen, but resume wise isn’t in their favor.
