    I am willing to give Silas more time, I think he is trying.

    He probably hates ISO a lot.

    I do think he is only an average coach at best.

    He isn't the messiah but he has to get a better defensive coordinator for sure.

    (Wood is so overrated, mang)

    Clutch and all our local media are finally agreeing that Silas is not maximizing Harden.

    Leave it to the fools to not see this and keep swallowing the disinformation until the FBI knocks on your door.

    insane swarming defense by the lakers just capped off with Wall making a 3.

    Yeah... he handled it well, and he is right that it is early... but “Walt” is an idiot.

    Btw, making you’re best player a decoy is not outside thinking, it’s sheer stupidity

    Harden cult members don’t realize there’s two sides on the basketball court.

    When other Rockets fans call out Harden’s effort, it’s primarily on the defensive side of the ball and lack of doing the little things: running back on defense, boxing out, etc. His effort in transition D tonight was AWFUL.

    “oH, bUt hE dRoppEd X aMoUnt oF pOiNts, hE’s giViNg mAx eFfort”. Please take off the homer glasses.

    We'll see, if that is a pity move for someone coming off an Achilles.

    That's sadly who he is now. 31 year old.

    2 +1 options.

    1. Ejected.

    2. Injured.

    3. Both

    I'm not against trading Harden, at the right time, either.

    But it better be for a shet load of picks AND an All Star.

    I've said this already, not my fault you cant keep up.

    They honestly SHOULD trade Harden if this is how they plan to utilize him in the offense. A couple of guys capable of scoring 20 points and running around in this motion offense is better than one.

    I just see a lot of running around to get the same shots and often times worse more contested shots than the ones we were getting in the MDA “iso” offense.

    Teams now have a blueprint on Harden, unless Harden start taking midrange, they play him close at 3pt line and pack paint ....

    And it’s only been a few games into season with no practice time - we would still be in preseason during a regular year. Stop kneejerking on Silas

    Wall doesn't seem to do much without the ball either.

    Maybe that is the offense
