Not a problem just yet. They have the pieces to be just fine. They won't be atop the standings at the end of the RS but they won't be last.
1-4, -8.8 Diff

Bold claim. Not first or last. 2nd place to 14th place is a really tight window. Absolutely no margin for error.
Meaning 8th seed. They'll make the playoffs near the top of the seeding.
They look like . Harden's turned back into a ty defense chamber maid. Melo was a ing disaster of a pick-up. Their role players look tired of this and they're throwing a wad of draft picks for a non-fix in Jimmy Butler.
Ugly ing got![]()
They'll get better but it's definitely surprising. Melo plaguing every team he plays for with his chucking, non-existent defense, and me-first at ude. I actually really hope Morey gives yo 4 firsts for Butler. Mortgaging your future for a guy who's about to be a FA this Summer and still not winning it all would be great.
They need a Danny Green or Josh hart type player. Maybe even a Trevor ariza? I really don't know why they would let him go and bring in a former dantoni flameout like Carmelo.
If Jimmy thinks KAT is bad, just wait until he has to play with Frauden.
This. I'd love them to give up 4 picks and have Butler not re-sign just for the comedy value. Or re-sign and further clog their cap. Either way gold
We can't all be as cool as you, brutha.
Forgot cancer added / not there last year.
Cos they're idiots.
Guests with a 20 point lead in the third, this is so bizarre. Dat Melo effect?
Isn't it because he is boyfriends with Chrissy Paul?
The fact that the likes of Wade are considered totally done when Melo has been stinking up the joint for years is disgraceful. With even the Kings and Clippers playing well, Houston better wake up fast.
They never had a window to begin with, tbh. Not building around chokers like Frauden and CP0, and especially not as long as the Warriors exist.
still good enough to beat the Lakers tbh
I would say they had a very decent chance last year before WarriorRef stepped up big time in Game (6) was that the rigger?
Yes the Rockets D'Antonioed a huge amount of clanked treys but 'member the one where Warrior got literally locked the arm of the Rockets shooter as he attempted to raise up for the shot and the no-call.
CP0's injury was unfortunate too.
But ya, no guarantee a healthy CP0 wouldn't have choked anyways.![]()
To appease Chris Paul? He and Melo are tight...
