    Are there any stats on Pick and Roll plays attempted for the Rockets in the last two games?

    I actually cannot recall a single PnR attempt, at least not a single successful one.

    Mobley played 42 mins in tonight game.

    It’s impossible to happen on Jalen Green!

    i OTH refuse to believe coaches cant be this dumb... just remember that michael jordan runs the worst organization in the history of NBA...

    also remmeber silas got back to thesis lineup again after he got fed up with winning streak...

    also remmeber losing is in his genes, his father was the biggest loser of all times...
    he cant stand winning because it would be disrespectful to his father...

    At the end of the game when Sam Cassell shook hands with Silas was I the only one thinking things could/should be so different?

    I don't think so, Stone has shown he can find talent... He does not need KPJ and Theis to show the world he is a capable GM... If Stone was forcing these guys its to try and trade them. Problem here is not how bad KPJ and Theis are... Its how stupid Sila's system is. Nothing makes sense, nothing. He does nothing right..... I get he can't draw up plays but he can't even get rotations right. He can't even match up or better yet said he can't recognize bad matchups. Defense is possibly worst in NBA history, some coaches just aren't good in that spot but Sila's excels at being awful in every category except losing. He can't even play players in their respective positions. He can't develop young players either because none of them see him as a coach, they see him as the cool substitute teacher that lets them do whatever but know they don't have to listen to. Substitute teachers don't teach they just take care of the kids because well an adult has got to be there at least present.

    Silas can not teach, can not coach and can not win... He can't even lose properly... He is without exaggerating possibly the worst coach The NBA has ever seen with the exception of his dad...

    Mobley is a better NBA player than Jalen Green right now.

    For the billionth time this is not true. This was a media personality assuming you have to play a newly acquired guy. There is not one quote from SIlas, Stone or anyone in the front office or any insider for that matter stating that Stone specifically told Silas he had to play Theis. I wish people would stop spreading fake news because they want it to be true. This is a huge issue with America as a whole right now.

    I can see that, but conversely why wouldn’t he be making a mandate to force feed Green or play him more?

    Nobody gives a **** about Theis and KPJ really. Theis can be moved and KPJ could be cut and you don’t lose much.

    If Green is not developed right and looks like ass as a player that’s going to be the blemish that everyone points out. Not KPJ or Theis.

    So ultimately I can’t see him having a mandate to feature two guys that he could move and lose nothing really, in lieu of Green and Sengun who would be bigger marks against him.

    I think it’s more logical that Silas is just a moron.

    Ego is weird sometimes. I think Stone might have a little Ego. Maybe he wants his own James Harden story like Morey?

    I believe the Theis story, sorry @Joe Rocket They said Stone participates in practices and sh*t.

    I mean, I dont know. I'm just trying to find meaning in all this, lol

    Silas can not even manage to manage minutes for the roster that was given to him. A lot of development talk but how do you develop players when you won't play them. If we had an upcoming draft and The Rockets were full of veterans I'd be ok with it, but he is stunting our future's growth. He is not developing Sengun and Green into all stars, he is developing them to do what he does. What his dad does. To lose. We are rebuilding, I get it.... What I don't get is how Sila's can not for once tell KPJ and WOOD to stope dribbling the fing ball for one damn time and find Green or Sengun. What I don't get is how Sila's can not man up and stop playing KPJ at point. I have more faith in Christopher developing into a pg than KPJ... In fact, I have more faith that The Rockets will be more successful if they just inbound the ball on the floor and just let it roll into the half court. I mean the chances of a turnover are possibly lower than KPJ bringing it up.

    This is what Stone needs to do with Silas asap...

    LOL I understand I just hate hate things stated as fact that are huge assumptions. Thats actually not fair to Stone. We have to assume that Stone is an inflexible hard ass just so Silas can save face. But I understand trying to find meaning. I didnt like the Silas pick up in the first place so all of this is something I saw coming so I dont need to find meaning. He's not a very good coach and when coaches arent good weird things happen. You see him doing things that other coaches do but at the wrong times. Its because he's trying to act like a good head coach. He isnt one though.
