Sure, it will be disappointing for the Rockets to not have a championship during the James Harden era, but 2018 is as close as anyone has gotten to eliminating the Warriors in the West. Even after constructing a team to directly go against the Warriors, it’s no surprise that a team consisting of four all-stars prevailed.

I can’t see a great fit for Morey right now. The Philadelphia 76ers look unlikely to sack their current General Manager Elton Brand, but I would be really interested to see how Morey would apply his team building strategy around Simmons and Embiid. For next season it looks increasingly likely that Morey may return to his business endeavours rather than an NBA team.
