Players who have never even made an all star game are getting paid 100 million. What do you think all Stars will be getting paid today? Les isn't selling the team because he's broke.

No contender would. Only a shit franchise with 1 PO win in a quarter century would keep a twit like Morey.

Advanced stats are over rated. They make sports appear more complicated than they are and hence sofa-athletes get inferiority complexes when someone cracks on how simple sports are. Patterns and observations > Morey and his ilk.

He's selling it because it's a turd wrapped in hair and they finally set it on fire with the Paul signing.

"Oooooo, we got starz!". ...and a 45 win team.

I don't have a problem with advance stats (though, I agree his application of them is off). I just think he's an arrogant buffoon who is pretty uncouth for a man in his position.

And to extrapolate, I think being a GM is not the hard job that people make it out to be. I always get a kick out of people pretending it requires some great level of talent. There are so many moron GMs it's not even funny.

Houston Rockets Are Sold to Tilman Fertitta for $2.2 Billion

Fertitta owns Landry’s, which includes more than 500 restaurants as well as casinos and hotels. He is also the host of a reality show, “Billion Dollar Buyer” on CNBC, in which he travels around the country visiting small businesses and considers becoming a customer.

In a statement announcing the sale, the Rockets alluded to the recent devastation in Houston caused by Hurricane Harvey, saying, “It is truly unfortunate that this announcement is occurring amidst the aftermath of one of the biggest tragedies in the history of our great city.” Fertitta is a native of nearby Galveston.
