    Think about the message it sends to the players on the team. It’s was pathetic. But the bar has been lowering since he bought the team. From those first salty western conference championship post game defeat comments where he made it about himself. Cause that’s what f#cking egomaniacs do.

    do u think he’ll fire his son? Lol

    no sht. If u said that early, i wouldn't have responded b/c it's tru, but u said no one and i just corrected that nonsense cause im pretty sure there were folks beggin for the tank before the harden trade/drama even came into play

    The rebuild plan is too optimistic if it is almost done lol, what team turned their franchise around in 3 yrs without lucking into a generational player? It takes a lot of time to rebuild from the ground and CF being CF clearly has no idea what is going on.

    I think you're missing the point is not just the draft.

    They will have cap space for 2 quality starters AND another high draft pick.

    They have assets to trade for contracts without taking salary back if the free agents aren't to our liking.

    Mix in a new coach and there should be marked improvement moving forward...

    I'll admit, I may have jumped the gun after his "PRAY FOR VICTOR" commit but we as fans deserve more. At the conclusion of the season, we deserve to know that there is a Plan B that does not include Silas.

    A plan that includes going hard after FAs and if we "PRAY FOR VICTOR" and don't get him that they just won't continue to use TANKING as the only method of trying to get better.

    What's so wrong about this? Aren't we all thinking the exact same thing?

    People just casually forget it and think things will magically fix themselves. I want to live with that bliss.

    I really think Silas gets a year to show what he can do without the tank. Think, even a much improved team could miss the playoffs and they could go for their playoff coach then. Or he brings them to the show and earns an extension.

    I think I favor the idea that you could have cap room to sign the necessary veterans but also give the guys already on the roster a contract when they earn it. Like how stupid would it be to blow all this money and not be able to keep a Tari Eason when he starts ascending?

    Not saying it's what I would do necessarily. I think the Rockets will though. If nothing this season did it what would?

    Dear God/Universe/Higher Power (use whatever term you're comfortable with),

    We come to you today with a heavy heart and a solemn request. We ask that you bless Victor Wembanyama with the strength, courage, and wisdom he needs to navigate the challenges he may face in his life. We pray that he is surrounded by love, support, and positivity from family, friends, and those around him.

    May he continue to excel in his basketball career and be a source of inspiration for others. May he use his talents and skills to make a positive impact on the world and make it a better place.

    We ask that you keep him safe and healthy, and guide him towards his highest good. May he find happiness, joy, and fulfillment in all aspects of his life.

    We pray all of this with gratitude and trust, knowing that you hear our prayers and will answer them in the way that is best for Victor and all those involved.

    Amen.
