    Pelican's game plan was simple. They put their tall guys to pack the paint. Sagged off at our non-shooters. And closed out at 3pt shooters. Bunch of the drive and kicks got picked off as TOs.

    Well coached team.

    Not asking for defensive specialists, but we really need players coaches who can play will coach some defense.

    We have no idea what to do on drive and kicks when they just crowd the driver. They know where exactly who we are passing to, and who to sag off. We just rinse and repeat

    I wonder if Silas can bring them there. I know Stone has to get the players, but the coach has to tie it all together. Over the years, I've tended to give our coaches a long leash, Well, except for McHale. I never liked him, but aside from McHale, I usually give our head coach a long time to prove he can take the team where it needs to go, and if not, let him, whoever it is, try to do it somewhere else. What I'm saying is that I'm really getting tired of Coach Silas. Give him the rest of this season, but if the team doesn't start looking like a team, win or lose, go in a different direction. You spoke of defense, well, there's a former Rockets coach living in Houston who's good at getting a team to play it.

    I read that as “we need a coach to fire Sengun” and was like NoOOOo!

    can players even be fired? Can we fire assistant coach/player John Wall?

    Rockets started playing double bigs again and get worse, especially on interior defense.

    Hmmm...
