    Could be sincere, could be PR. Could be a different outlook when he knows the outcome of the lottery.

    Again, I think only a fool would say there is a 0% chance that he does nothing but come to the Rockets with a happy attitude. The people around him have to know that his development (or lack thereof) and his team's success will be the difference between millions and potentially billions. Right now, it's a huge risk to his brand and future earnings to let him come to the Rockets, especially if Silas is still the coach.

    Every day Silas remains the coach of this team, the more I know that Tilman is not serious about ever winning and our expectations for the future should change accordingly.

    This is an individual poster. Please do not, even inadvertently, lump other supporters of Sengun in with this kind of post.

    More like if the owner does not fire Stone (Silas is a given) then he needs to be fired but he can't fire himself.

    I believe I was referring to a specific Sengunatic, SINGULAR.

    In fact, I believe my actual words were, "Sengunatic shows his true color" . . . where both "Sengunatic" (singular noun) and "his" (singular possessive pronoun) refer to the specific individual Sengunatic in question:

    The problem is that your statement implies that being a "Sengunatic" is what makes him "show his true color".

    Hypothetical example: An individual who happens to be a Republican shoots up a gay bar.

    Clearly, it's a crazy individual.

    But if you were to make the statement "Republican shows his true colors" in response to the incident, very clearly that would imply that him being a Republican is (at least partly) to blame for his crazy act. That way, you indirectly indict all other Republicans.

    And of course you are way too smart to not be aware of that, so please don't play coy. Thanks.

    Nah, he used the word for any outspoken Sengun supporter. I love @Os Trigonum, but I am one of the outspoken Sengun supporters (although not an "only fan"), and I am a bit tired of the schtick. I understand that sometimes, sarcasm is a much needed escapism mechanism, but seeing all the unfair treatment Sengun is getting from the organization, and then this constant ridiculing of his supporters on top of that is a bit much.

    Nah, Os. Nah.
    You have been owned; stop squirming.
    You used Sengunatic without an article or a determiner. If you had said "A/The Sengunatic" or "This/That Sengunatic" maybe you would've had a point.
    Instead you opted for a xenophobic tabloid wording style.
    Just try to grow a pair of raisins and accept being exposed.
