“It’s always a pleasure to meet with one of our players,” Rockets GM Daryl Morey said happily. “What’s on your mind, Clint?” “We gotta trade Dwight.

“Dear Diary, Well, the Rockets are probably going to miss the playoffs. We just lost to the Suns. How do you even do that? They suck. I guess losing to bad teams is something that happens when your own team is itself a bad team. Hopefully nobody ever reads or further disseminates my private diary…

I used to not want for the Rockets to make the playoffs. Not for any particular dislike of them; I just like seeing good teams do bad (it means more scrub highlights).
