I've grown to hate STEPHEN SILAS.

    So Phil Jackson isn't a good coach since he didn't cut Pippen or Rodman right? Rodman literally went AWOL on the team.

    Silas's job this season was not to win games (in fact it might be to lose games), it's to develop players. And against that metric, it does appear that players are developing across the board. Everyone seems to have improved from the start of the season with the exception of Garuba. I'm pleased with how Christopher, Sengun, Green, Martin, and the players seem to be performing. They hustle, the play scrappy, and they are playing with energy. Even KP3 seems to have grown despite his recent outburst. And Mathews is a fine find as well. The offense looks a lot better and so does the defense even though it has a long ways to go. I wonder if Silas makes some of the changes in the rotations to not win games because they are puzzling I admit, but I don't think he's the idiot he's made out to be on this board.

    Let's not forget here that he is the one who punished CWood initially for missing the Covid Test, as well as deciding to cut House. People were so upset he played house over martin at the beginning of the year, but then they let him go - perhaps they were trying to give him a chance or see if they could get value for him in a trade.

    I'm curious to see how Silas does when winning is more of a priority.

    I wish that was the only reason Silas should be fired. Personally, don't care what Sengun thinks, he needs to play more. Why is JG playing so much otherwise in comparison? If this is Silas' reason for not playing he just shows how incompetent he truly is. Silas sucks as a coach and should be fired and Sengun needs to man up and play more minutes.

    ^Lol, even when Sengun himself says he's not ready to play more minutes due to lack of conditioning and he's actually on the bench injured, Sengun minutes monitoring morons don't accept defeat and double down.

    The internet ladies and gentlemen -> you can never lose if you keep posting

    You know, who cares what Sengun himself thinks? He gets paid to play, it's about what's best for his development. That means more minutes and firing Silas.

    BTW, for someone that likes to call out others morons on the GARM you certainly are one.

    Actually this is false. He said in the quote that his body is ready now. I swear people on this board have poor reading skills. The number of people who just glazed over him saying that is growing by the day.

    Nobody knows Sengun's physical condition better than a bunch of internet randos - not the coaches, not the training staff, not Alperen Sengun.

    Why i bet his ankle isn't even sprained. Need @clos4life to look at the x rays

    You just glazed over it AGAIN. Sengun said his body is ready now. So in fact by "internet randos" you're referring to yourself. Also just about everyone gets injured at some point for a short period some more than others I dont see him getting injured as a sign of bad conditioning, if thats true the entire NBA needs to be conditioned LOL

    nothing to do with conditioning he played him only 5 minutes in one game because thesis was 'playing good'

    he also played him like 10 mins average at one point then suddenly started playing him 10 minutes more in a matter of just a week....so his conditioning doubled in such a short period? yeah right....

    It's amazing - it's like the Rockets tried to ease him into the relentless grind of the NBA season, and even Sengun fell for it. Wake up sheeple!

    Ummm. This is the height of non-proportionality. A few minutes of game time compared to... a pandemic.

    The constant "lolols" don't increase whatever level of ownage you believe you're having by posting this - quite the opposite in fact.

    Agreed

    Sheeple = Democrats and Biden followers

    Anyways my biggest issue with sengun is not his conditioning but his reaching to much on defense and foul trouble

    Once he gets that under control then he should get more minutes

    You sure sheeple arent the people who were talked into attacking the capital only to be left with their dicks in their hands when its time to go to jail and trumpy didnt pardon them? Or how about voting for a man "because he's a good business man" only to find out he has a ridiculous amount of bankrupcy filings and lawsuits due to unpaid bills and his campaign was racking up unpaid bills in every town he campaigned in even though he was being sent millions by his idiot followers. Dont start **** your dumb ass cant finish. Imagine thinking voting for Trump and not taking a vaccine to protect you from an illness are the right decisions to make in life LMAO. Like what type of grown man is afraid of a vaccine, children take vaccines we all ****ing have taken a vaccine. All Fox news had to say is the vaccine is the devil and you idiots believe anything and everything the foreign owned fake news media tells you lol (They then required all their employees to take the vaccine after telling you not to) They got you to think that the leading doctor for such diseases didnt know what he was talking about you all treat him like he's a political leader not a doctor lol sheeple indeed.

    Do u even hear yourself? Who cares what a person who knows his body best thinks?

    If a person says he's not ready maybe silas is accommodating sengun to make him more comfortable? But sure btching about silas not giving enough mins for sengun is the ez way out without much critical thought.

    Sengun is coming back from an injury his mins should slowly b increased once more.

    Some of u sengun only fans r weird.

    A coach that tries to accommodate a rookie is a good thing. My complaint about silas is that the offense he runs is weird as fk. No way should theis be shooting 3s while green is camped in the corner.

    30 games in sengun said his body is ready now.

    So what happen the first 30 games? It was silas accommodating to his rookie that he wasnt ready hence the mins were inconsistent but they were slowly increased. We have posters on here btching for him to go 30+ mins the first 5 games when the rookie himself said he wasn't ready yet.

    He is now coming back from an injury should we give him max mins risk more Injuries or should we ease him in once more?

    I still think silas doesn't know what he's doing most of the time, but I dont fault him for trying to accommodate to his rookies growth

    doubling and tripling his playing time from game to game suddenly is not easing him up...

    he played him 5 minutes one night because thesis 'played good' then suddenly played him 25 minutes in a few days...its not easing him up its a tanking bs and/or racial bias ie keeping JG roy chances alive

    he sat him vs bucks when alpi was hot and threatened to continue the winning streak vs champs....and threatened to become ROY FROM THE BENCH...

    silas is protecting JGs interests
