    7 first round draft picks in 2 years, AND WE'RE STILL THE WORST TEAM IN THE WEST.

    That is sad.

    Silas is a literal genius at tanking or he’s the most incompetent coach in the NBA.

    Why should he? At the end he is an undersized fella from an unknown territory.

    That was hard to watch. My hope is a lose like this lights a fire in the locker room.

    It's pretty blatant when looking at all variables/circumstances that they are trying to lose and/or hiding him. Engineering losses

    I watch the games, every game… we miss wide open 3pt shots …that’s a talent issue.

    Rockets missed 11 FTs - had less turnover - more points in paint - and shot 5 of 24 from 3….

    That’s on the players.

    you're not missing anything. I'm pretty sure Silas is just intentionally punking the Sengunatics in the fan base to make them apoplectic

    The good news is: Josh Christopher got 35 minutes of pro basketball tonight

    The bad news is: he went 4-13 against the Windy City Bulls.

    I know with a young team like this there are going to be ebbs and flows...but it is so difficult to watch these games and not get mad and say some stupid **** to vent.

    Instead I’ll keep watching the games and hoping that we can fix our shooting a bit (especially Jalen) and if that happens, we’ll once again be a team on the rise

    You not missing anything of course. I mean it is funny that this thing goes on even when there is no single excuse. To the contrary, he is really the only player with very consistent production. It is really not important at this point. Nothing is until silas is fired.

    It seems more to me that we are actually hiding him to make sure the tank doesn't get endangered. I can't see a better explanation.

    I doubt they have any 3pt shooting drills.
    How could you bricking every game?
    It’s not talent, it’s about hard work.

    COACHING?
    I'm all in favor of it but what is this coaching you are referring to? (rolling out the balls doesn't count)
