As a season ticket holder, I'm absolutely dumbfounded by this. This trade makes absolutely zero sense for the Rockets. Westbrook is the antithesis of Morey's system. How exactly does this make us better?? How do you ever expect to get anyone to come play here now??
Cause Westbrook is better. You need to watch your mouth. You’ll be able to recognize how it makes HOU back court more dangerous even way up there in your nosebleed season ticket seats

This is a win for the Rockets...

Russ is 4½ years younger, 3 years younger experience-wise, so it extends the Rockets window...

Russ is also still a Top 15 player---->albeit, seemingly on the decline and near the bottom of that 15, but he's still a Top 15 player. Chris Paul isn't a Top 40 player now...

This is gonna work to the tune of the most deadly backcourt in the NBA. Russ showed most of last season he can take a step back and just play point, and that will extend his career and allow Harden to play more of the traditional SG role...

They just elevated from a team doing nothing and going nowhere to a championship contender. Those Big Bad Clippers (and everyone else, of course) got another threat to look out for...

Whoever wins The West will have earned it this year and will probably win the whole thing:

Clips, Lakers, Jazz, Blazers, Nuggets, Rockets are all legitimate. Warriors will be in the playoffs and if they get Klay in time to gel at the right time, they are putting whoever on Upset Alert...

Dallas is my pick as the 8th seed but Sacramento and New Orleans will be right there...

Anybody telling you today that they know the seeding of the West next year is lying. Seeding is gonna be crucial because the Top 6 seeds may be separated by 10 games or fewer, and the success rate I'm the playoffs will hinge on a)who's healthier at the right time; b)who has momentum at the right time; and c)matchups...

Big Bad Clippers are everybody's favorite, pressure is on starting today...


:patrice: u don’t have the Spurs in the playoffs with D Murray coming back ? :jbhmm:
