    Because he can shoot and Westbrook cant. Raw scoring numbers dont mean anything.

    Silas is so clearly in over his head right now. He probably drives home every night thinking, "Damn, THIS is what I've been wanting for 20 years?? Rick told me being a head coach wasn't all it was cracked up to be. Maybe I should have listened...."

    I still remember when House looked like an amazing prospect. Not sure why he 180ed so damn hard, but I still wish he would succeed. Can't help but think he will be out of the league in two years based off his attitude. FeelsBadMan

    He can shoot much better than Westbrook and Harden was here for 8 games. So there you go. We were continually worse with Westbrook on the floor.

    Maybe the best way to explain this is

    Without a Stone foundation and the Wall made of Wood, a House cannot stand.

    Not a Westbrook fan either.

    But we cannot deny that those 2 were the most prolific scoring duo in NBA history.

    While Wall and Harden were a shitfest on the court.

    Chemistry and coaching matters.

    Under MDA, both scored even more than they do now.

    Man, those 6 weeks from January to March of last year were fun as hell. The Rockets looked like legitimate dark horse title contenders, and teams like the Lakers were actually worried about us. Then we flamed out at signing/trading for any athletic big men, our midget centers got bullied and tired, we went on a losing streak, COVID happened, House decided to **** us and himself in the Bubble, and the rest is history. Sucks to suck.

    Harden did not bend over backward to accommodate Wall like he did with Westbrook and he wanted to make a point and be traded, its disingenuous to compare what he did last year with Westbrook to the beginning of this year with Wall.

    You also have to add in who the coaches were.

    It takes one to know one and all that but House seems to have some anger issues.

    Danuel House really needs to know his place. If he feels hes superstar then he can come to I don't know Greek or Croatian league and maybe there he will be(but im not so sure about that anyway)

    John Wall is much, much closer than House's level in this league, than he is to a superstar's level.
