    Dude was on the Rockets and he decided to stop being on the Rockets. Bummer decision, Danuel. You got your wish and you stopped playing for the Rockets.

    Sure and if it weren't for House the rockets might not be above .500

    He's contributed big when we needed someone to step up .

    I agree playing with the rockets and harden is the best thing that has ever happened to House .... but let's not pretend like he didn't earn a contract with his play . It's not like the rockets are "gifting" him a free ride .

    Personally , I think house shows a killer instinct and that is invaluable .

    He didnt decide anything. The two way contract means that the Rockets get to unliaterally decide to keep him on the Rockets for the rest of the season and Tilman refused. Instead sending Houss to the DLeague as leverage to force him to accept being locked up for 2 more years of minimum wage when he can make much more in the market.


    When will Tilman's base open their eyes and see him for what he is?

    He's making more than I am. He's in the G League. Good luck to him.

    Agree to disagree. One fan's "killer instinct" is another fan's "laudably aggressive play because he's fighting to get a contract so he can stay in the league."

    You think House will be equally effective over 3 full seasons as he has been in 25 games, and that he would be relatively as effective on other teams (increasing his actual value). I think he's played really well, but would likely finish this year on the bench, and the only reason he's looked as good as he has is because he's playing with an attention-drawing superstar in a system that benefits him.

    When the reason Dinwiddle went off was in part due to your home team sending you down to the G league and replacing you with a scrub that doesn't belong playing in America.

    If Harden is what makes House great, how do people explain James Ennis?

    Irrelevant comment unless you play professional basketball.

    Rox give him 3 years, 4 million dollars, but he rejected and has been saying GOD has a plan for him.

    Danuel, GOD gave you 3 years and 4 million dollars and the chance to play in your hometown with Harden you idiot. Harden alone would get you a bigger deal when you turn 28 let alone your own improvement in that time span. Harden got Ariza 1 year, 15 million for godsakes.

    That's right, I found that strange when I saw that he liked them on HoH's Instagram page.

    What a douche.

    And remember we're the guys that find Chandler Parsons... not the one's that PAY him.

    Scrubs playing is GOD's plan right Danuel? Dinwiddie going off, GOD's plan. Him liking those highlights, GOD's plan. Well GOD has a plan for me (not really) and that is to **** on people who **** on my city and my teams.

    You asked why people don't side with House. I told you why. It is totally relevant. You got yourself confused.
    Put another way: I don't side with House because he could have stayed on the Rockets and he did not. I feel no sympathy for him (or his salary concerns). That answers your question.

    What's wrong with 2 years, no options on either side? Is there some big hang up with doing that? An inherent negative of some kind for one or the other side that I'm missing or forgetting?

    I hope God has a backup plan, like having Tim Tebow still struggling to make a MLB roster at age 31.

    Too late, had your chance. Go play with the Dinwiddie and the Nets.
