    I am a bit surprised no NBA team has picked up Zhou Qi when he was waived by the Rockets in December. Especially considering his DPOY potential. Certainly 29 other GMs are seeing this, right? right?

    Holic won't enter this thread again until the Rockets lose a game, and then he will say the Rockets are screwed until they trade Capela for Anthony Randolph

    Zhou QI is likely preparing for the International World Cup.

    Welcome back! It’s been a couple of weeks. Was worried about you bro!

    Any new Capela takes?

    We're in the playoffs. It's time to talk about the team. We don't have too many games left before we'll need to move on and discuss the possibilities of next season.

    But before we were in the playoffs, we were at the crossroads.

    Yes, we were. And we took the wrong fork. And we're still not champions. And we won't be this year either. There'll be another crossroads for us after these playoffs. Hopefully we take the right route.

    We are at a crossroads. I think it's time to blow up the team and rebuild - the sooner the better. Start now before Game 2. Let Paul go, dump Gordon and Capela for 1st round picks. Might as well get started with the offseason, right @basketballholic ?


    Here's a video everyone needs to get:

    Get lost then clown! We're here to ride with the Rockets to the championship. If you aren't with us, stop sh*tting all over this forum with your lame takes.

    I'm here to root for my team but to have reasonable discussion about what will and won't produce a championship. Some posters can't deal with reality.

    This team was a Chris Paul hamstring from a championship last year and is arguably better this year.

    How can you be sure we won't win it this year? I mean there is no way for you to be able to make this kind of statement. You've been wrong time and time and time again. Where is humility?

    You lost me when referencing "reality".

    Example of irrationality here. WE are not better than last year. Our record says what we are. Thinking (and hoping/wishing/dreaming) otherwise is not being real. It's not reality.



    Read above.

    This whole thing is a bit, right? I mean, last year we weren't great enough to take down a historically great dubs team but came really freaking close- and this year, again, we look like the 2nd or 3rd best team in the association with Golden State poised to implode in the offseason and this **** is what you come up with?

    Says the guy who thinks Nerlons Noel and Anthony Randolph are the keys to winning a championship.

    Talk about Reality check.
