    Silas uses every single opportunity to demote Sengun. Takes him out at the end of the game. Plays Nix as many minutes as Alpi.

    Enough is enough. Fire Silas!

    Nix is a point guard. Their minute distributions aren’t related. And we needed rebounds and defensive hustle the last 5 minutes.

    Oh yes? That's why you bench your best rebounder?

    You could play Green, Gordon, Tari, Bari, Sengun.

    Or Green, Bari, Tari, Garuba, Sengun.

    Every single one out of Sengun, Garuba and Tari is a better passer than Nix.

    No need to play Nix. EVER.

    Silas' offense is "my turn, your turn". No matter who plays. That's all it is. You don't need a coach for that.

    Even Murph just said it.

    He needs to be fired for many reasons, but the way he has been treating Alperen Sengun is ridiculous. Benches him for Bruno ****ing Fernando, keeps talking badly about him, yanks him at every opportunity, benches him during crunchtime.

    Silas definitely hates Sengun, I have zero doubt for that.

    Why does no reporter ever put Silas on the spot and ask him about this - it is very obvious. Former Clutchfans poster @thacabbage has been posting about it on Twitter. That guy was a good poster and is good on Twitter.

    he just gives the fans what they want...its rare to meet a rockets fan that doesnt put down sengun constantly or gets irritated when sengun is praised or suggested for promotion like handling the ball more or posting up more....or god forbid being a lead guard on this trash team...why is that...imho houstonians/rockets fans feel threatened by muslims or influx of the only fans so they react by putting down sengun and not wishing him well like other players... he is also white and that doesnt help because coach silas is a black man and has to help to his black brothers even if it mean putting sengun down...

    He’s the Tank Commander. He’ll be fired once the organization is trying to compete again

    I’m all for firing Silas but the idea he has some animosity toward Sengun is silly. He’s just a bad coach who doesn’t properly utilize the strengths of his players. Not posting up Sengun is a case in point.

    Lol. You Sengun trolls are beyond stupid. Sengun's defense is atrocious. Now ofcourse you'll never hold him accountable, but anyone who watches our games can see this.
