We got KD for peanuts basically. I think people forget that. The bigger thing for me is I don’t see sengun and amen being the top 2 guys on a contender together. One will need to be traded I think at some point for this team to really tsk the next step.
Its cause these Rockets fans know the business better than the coaching staff and front office so I get why they are so upset at being the number 3 seed in the stacked west. Fire Ime and and let’s start over.
What growth what development!!!!!!!
Before the season started there were constant posts about the only way this team was going to win is if the young guys took big leaps. Well sadly that didn’t happen so why is anyone surprised lol.
Hey guys look! Fred said we are chilling how dare yall criticize the team!!
Moronic post
Easy talk when you get paid tens of millions to rehab and crack jokes on the sidelines. Not saying I wouldn’t love it lol… dream job.
If pros were paid by results, they wouldn’t be so casual though.
There are obviously a lot of diehard sports fans that care about winning more than the actual players. Not saying that about any of our guys. Just in general.
Simple example: the increasing number of players that are manipulating their numbers for betting props, regardless of whether it’s costing games. And we all know final scores will be impacted more than ever in all sports in the new gambling era.
Most fans are average joes that lean into sports on irrational levels. Before the know-it-alls say “those people should chill, it’s not that serious, it’s just entertainment” you’re right. I agree.
Just be real though. Even if you don’t, a lot of sports fans around the world live and die with their teams, so to speak. It’s primal level stuff. There are literally gangs in other parts of the world, at least in soccer. In general, the emotions are real. I know they are for me, right or wrong.
Bottom line, for those that wanna ride with FVV’s PR work, go for it. Dude makes too much money not to be optimistic.
I will disagree with my man Freddy though. The Rockets are not in good shape. They are stalled more than making progress, especially under the current coaching regime and with the imbalanced roster.
Expectations were super high going into the season, even after Freddy went down. The collective mood is totally understandable given how flawed this roster has been revealed to be fundamentally compared to real contenders. Record is not the sole indicator of where we’re at in that regard.
Nice try, Fred, but that’s just easy talk from the penthouse.
What else will he say, his contract and his non compete keeping the team behind
With a coach like Ime, that doesn’t matter Fred. We’re not winning a damn thing with a child who cannot take accountability and gets into petty “bitch” fights with players.
Sure dude. Let’s all just give up on this year and hope 38 year old KD is just as good.
This whole organization has zero urgency except KD
Send this post to the top! We should have 2 subreddits. One for us loyal logical fans and another for the doomers.
I legit hate coming here for the most part this season…I’ve considered banning myself. So much negativity and pessimism after every loss.
What do you expect him to say? “They should trade me and my $25 mil contract immediately for a real PG since I’m not playing this year, to actually help our chances of winning a chip”. 😂
KD is too damn old to be having gap years. Who knows what he’ll look like next yr.
lol, what do you expect them to say? “Ime is a fraud and we are fucked”?
Sooo, basically punt the seasonv
In my head this is a gap year. It’s a win in my books if we can in the first round of the playoffs (hopeful wishing on more than that). A lot of the young guys didn’t develop as quickly as I hoped. Obviously missing a pg, but I’m proud of Amen’s development on the offensive end. I doubt we pay what other teams will on Tari, Bari is his own biggest hater, and Reed has been alright. Alpi and KD have done everything they have been expected to do. Add FVV and a healthy Steven Adams and this team is a legit contender.
Incredibly self serving for Fred to say shit like this
