    Honest question. Does anyone on this site think KPJ would play major minutes on any team in this league if the Rockets release him today? I really don’t think any team would play him and he would be at the end of the bench. He simply isn’t good enough.

    I wouldn't trade him next next year either. I'm tired of watching a developmental team. We need him.

    KPJ had Harden mannerisms on some of those 3's

    Silas figuring out KPJ is no good at point. Experimenting maybe.

    Yeah but it’s his final year. Most likely they’d trade him at that point rather than re-sign him.

    Porter needs to play just Small Forward, he had a nice game today and he only had two or three assists. He is not a Point Guard!

    In retrospect, sure. At the moment, inexplicable, at least to me. I don't think he needed a breather.

    But kinda like them coaches over on Kirby, for the past seven years, the fans pick it up faster than the coaches.

    Glad that the reporter asked Silas about staggering KP and Green's minutes a couple of games ago otherwise it doesn't get done til like March or something.

    He'd play somewhere due to COVID-19, but not at close to the usage he gets with Houston

    Yeah i agree. As a breather sub or situational maybe but i cannot see him with major minutes. Which tells you how much of an endeavor or experiment the Rox are doing with him right now. Really can’t see him playing for Rox next year if he sustains this level of play.

    Still lost to "Paul worst coach badge holder Silas" son at home when the latter's team was the worst in the conference.

    I don't know who is in the list nowadays, used to be Lenny Wilkins, Don Nelson type of folks. That title is similar to S. Kings' existence in the most winning teams table, not showing success but longevity.

    Pop was 3rd in my list after Obradovic and Rudy T. (I know historically Pop is better than Rudy T. but this is my list) but seems a hopeless geezer now.

    seemed like he wanted to go head to head with murray his old high school team mate. If so it was selfish as he was not looking out for good of the team. Luckily it worked out our way.

    Thats a shot at coaching. Even murph has been begging to see more shots for EG. To his credit, he never put his stats ahead of the team. But tonight, he looked like he could get to 40 easy.

    just some dumb pro tank stuff as usual, i mean what do you expect from people who think losing is a good substitute for winning?
