    I need shannon brown to stay at home on the shooter, no need to sag in and give space for the pass.

    Plenty of guys to rebound right now.

    It’s not even chemistry issues dudes are just dumb and lazy on the defensive side of the ball.

    Agree, chemistry is biggest issue at this point

    Do you guys honestly believe this is the result of even average coaching?


    I’m not gonna spam, I’ve said what I feel, but Silas is off to a really really bad start.

    When he put Gordon in the starting lineup, I just knew. It’s such a small thing to an outsider, but it’s so indicative of his BBIQ and perceptiveness as a scout.

    Not sure what Harden has done wrong beside not getting back once and one silly pass.

    Obviously everyone is feeling each other out.

    I know it's the game thread so we react to the game but so far I think the team is alright. They are getting by on talent right now and it's keeping them close.

    Rockets defense this year = Go under picks so shooters can shoot open shots and if someone drives to the rim triple team him leaving a shooter for open shots lol. I hope it gets better this isnt pretty to watch.

    Don't even try to deny that he's not even trying on defense, and that's a huge part of winning games. I don't care if he put up numbers in a game. I'd rather have commitment on the defensive end and just smart play.

    He didn't put Gordon in the starting lineup though?

    And if you mean when he took out Gordon...good, Gordon has been much better coming off the bench for us and putting him out there with Wall and Harden does nobody good.

    Gordon’s best year as a rocket was when he won 6th man.
