    Well we still might win .

    But it will be due to the brilliance of our players (and some luck ) and have zero to do with what tilman has done

    Nobody wanted Faried. Nobody wanted Rivers. Nobody wanted House. The trick is to find people nobody wants.

    How does the luxury tax play into us not getting Morris.
    He picked OKC. Now you’re assuming it’s because we didn’t offer enough or asked to make him wait but you’re not basing that on anything.

    Yes I am assuming that .

    I could be wrong ... and if I am I will let this one go .

    But I still have problems with how we've (not) used our MLE this year .

    Lol. He'll probably be a Rocket this year. Like for pre-season 2019/20... a year late again!

    but you're also assuming he just picked okc and $ was not the issue...

    Which is the fair assumption right now because that’s all we know.

    This is the problem with this forum, people read posts by people with no credibility and just believe it, and now it’s “we didn’t get Morris because we’re cheap!”

    All we know is he picked OKC. Sheeesh. How ridiculous can we rockets fans be?

    hold on a second. we all know he would have to wait 8 more days to be able to sign with us -- that is an absolute fact. so how is it unreasonable to assume our financial situation played a part in where he chose to go?
