How bad will it have to get before Houston starts shopping everybody?

clutchfans is a thing of beauty right now.

My most hated team is the Lakers. And I really don't care for their fans one bit. But the fanbase I hate most of all are Rockets fans. I'd put money that they have the lowest average IQ of any fanbase in professional sports.
 
can you numbnuts read? The question in the OP ponders about when it will get bad enough to blow it up. The Inside the NBA crew agree that Harden is as big a problem as Dwight. That ship is sinking, braughs.

Ok, so if they blow it up and trade Harden/Howard then they would probably keep Jones 100% since he would be a young player to build around. Beverly would probably be available though.

if a team is blowing it up, then they're listening to all offers.

Wherever they're at now, I hope DL has enough enduring connections there to keep his fingers on the pulse. Beverley would definitely help a lot over here. He's a rich-man's Neto, and would be great off the bench when Dante returns. He can defend bigger players, too, so acquiring him doesn't mean the end of Burke.

The answer is a lot worse than it is now. Regardless of what the inside the NBA crew says about Harden, Houston won't be blowing it up to start over. They will retool\reload\whatever you call it first, which means they won't be trading for picks, but will want pieces to help them win now for any players we might covet. If we're looking to improve the team by adding talent for mostly picks, don't think Houston will be a viable option any time soon.

I also think this is the most likely outcome. Problem is, the rot in Houston is in Dwight and Harden. That makes a blowup more likely than normal, IMO.
 
The likely move is hire Thibs or Van Gundy. Trade D Howard to the highest bidder, put Capella at center who is really coming along.
 
Who would have thought we would be ahead of Houston and the clippers in the standings at this point in the season.
