The Houston Rockets were one series win away from representing the Western Conference in this year's NBA Finals. While there was some luck, in terms of seeding and that wild, improbable Game 6 comeback win against the Los Angeles Clippers in the semifinals, the Rockets got as far as they did because of the talent on the team put together by general manager Daryl Morey. So, what does Houston need to put them over the top next season? James Harden had some suggestions during his exit interview.

James Harden wants the Rockets to get a PG/SG?: Yeah definitely, that’s one of the conversations that me and Daryl (Morey) are going to have

More Harden: "... and the coaches is one of the pieces we need to have, that’s later conversation but we’ll be alright."

Maybe the Rockets do need some help at point guard. Or maybe, Harden should've just cleared things up with Lil B? After all, his nightmare Game 5 against the Golden State Warriors where he committed a new playoff high 13 turnovers wouldn't have been prevented if Houston had a reliable point guard. First things first, Harden. Squash whatever it is that you have with The Based God before anything else. Kevin Durant can attest to the importance of going that route first.
