    Rockets down 3 with 5 seconds left and the ball. J.B Bickerstaff is drawing out his summer vacation plans on the white board.

    Hinkie's resignation letter is pretty fascinating. Guy seems brilliant. Wonder if there's a role for him in our FO.

    HAHAHAHA fuck no. The dude compared himself to Warren Buffet, and does that stupid John Canzano one word paragraph thing. This guy is a first rate asshat.

    Weren't you telling me at the time how Love and Kyrie was so much more appealing to LeBron than an aging Wade and Bosh?

    I just listened to the podcast. He started out making some sense. You could tell he wasn't good communicating his vision, not a great talker, whatever at least he made sense.

    Then Lowe started asking him some difficult questions. Mentioned the Blazers and Celtics as alternative rebuilding options, and Hinkie had no answers. Basically said over and over that no matter what plan you go with the chances of winning a title are really low. Couldn't ever explain why his plan was the best alternative. By the end of the interview there were so many pauses and ums... He sounded like someone who really didn't know what he was doing.

    I just think the whole situation in Philly is interesting.

    He's really been killing it with the Pelicans. Great opportunity for Frazier to get minutes there. I think he will probably play tomorrow Vs the Lakers.

    Houston could be in trouble if they lose to the Suns tonight.

    HAHAHAHAHA How the HELL do the rockets lose to THE SUNS .... AT HOME... by almost 10. That is so pathetic.


    Even if they get a pick, they have an incompetent GM.
