the rockets are an iso team, imagine if you had the key to beat your bosses favorite team, but your boss put in a cheat code to dismantle your team and make his favorite team even stronger. THATS WHAT HAPPENED

If I remember correctly, the Raptors gave up a 1st round pick to Houston to sign Lowry. Houston used the pick (in part) to get Harden from Oklahoma. Oklahoma used the pick to draft Adams. Looks like everyone did ok in that transaction.

They were somewhat supportive.

I'd boo him if I was you. LOL


Ehh. He was only there a year, at least he willingly came there.

He’s kind of spastic and chucks a lot of shots, but he’s probably as close to a Westbrook substitute as you can get. Kind of like a lower middle class Westbrook ;).

You always help your teammates up off the floor. Standard NBA practice.
Only 7 Players in NBA history have 21,000 points, 5,750 assists and 5,750 rebounds. LeBron has double those numbers.

Thunder have much better depth this year, and everyone looks a year more comfortable.

On a completely unrelated note, the Rockets seem out of sorts when they go to their bench this year. Weird. Again, no connection whatsoever between these two phenomena.

Melo has actually been good for them in several games. Their issues are significantly more than him. He’s not shooting well yet this game, but he is playing less minutes and coming off the bench.

In my brain, I just hear NY Knick fans in MSG chanting "Mello... Mello... Mello... Mello". There's the answer.
