    his per 36 fouling rate never went over 36...i thought you respect the stats?!...
    how many times you need explained that before accusing other how fruitless is to discuss with them?

    btw you forgot to mention the stamina problem...thats even better excuse... harder to refute..

    oh you see alpi is huffing and puffing lets play him just 6 minutes tonight LOLOLOL

    and silas apologist will readily buy this...this is why democracy never works...

    alpi played 6 minutes games and 12 minutes games even when he wasnt fouling AT ALL ....TAKE THAT FOR DATA

    check the stats and the facts einstein....

    fouling was just narrative for uninformed, jalen only fans/racist, stone minions on twitter and similar....

    its easier for them to believe a player is fouling too much then that their coach/management is racist, corrupt or stupid enough not to play a talented guys just because hes pick no 16 and not top pick....

    Banchero has a better overall offensive set than Boozer had at his peak. He can handle the ball with ease and pass it. It's an irrelevant question what would have the Rockets done if he fell to 3? They never had a chance at him.

    I want to win. I want to see what Silas is like with a half decent roster and consistent rotations. It is hard to do that with a young roster most times.

    I had Jabari number one. Banchero was the most NBA ready, but in the long run Smith will prove himself. At this stage last season Green looked like he had never played basketball. The question is will Rocket's coaching be enough to develop Smith? So far, he looks really uncomfortable.

    You never knew with OKC but likely they would have taken him instead of Chet.

    Silas already had Wood, Olynyk, Oladipo and Wall.

    This game was the best I've seen the Rockets offense look.

    Flowing really well, everyone playing within the flow.

    Obviously 50% from three isn't sustainable but it wasn't like the rest of season, it just felt like team basketball.

    Oladipo was traded for Olynyk. And none of those guys are that good.

    Good luck to Banchero, good luck to Wagner, good luck to Jalen Suggs
    He is not priority. KPJ and his deputy are priorities. Jabari argued with the deputy, it did not help also.

    Instead Silas preferred to develop young stars DANIEL THEIS and WOOD… which is funny because none of them with the team now.

    The first part : I wish good luck to any other player in the league. What I did not write and expected the others to understand was please cut short and focus our own talents.

    The second part : What do you want me to explain? Very basic observation.

    its the same jazz has and they sitin atop the west...with no superstar and no experience playing together...if they hired silas, silas couldnt do it and hed be having 100 excuses for getting them wemby...

    of course its just a bunch of misfits, no defense players and not enough skills and star power!...he deserves a second chance, a fair chance, he thought he gonna coach donovan mitchel and gobert coming here....
