    Someone needs to persuade Ime that you don't sub out the player who is FG 4-6 and who is not showing any signs of fatigue just 6 minutes into the game.
    You are not saving him for late, Ime! You are cooling him off.

    Wonder what adjustments he's going to make next game to get open shots.

    Will people hit them?

    Unless the Rockets get swept and blown out by 20+ in the next 3 games, there is zero chance he is gone. Even in that situation, he still would probably be here next season.

    He needs the wake up call that he needs an offensive "assistant coach" to help on that side. It appears that Joe Mazzulla may have been that for him in Boston.

    Ime's offense is Junior High level, we have no plan, he was outcoached.

    Our boys are so young. Let them play. Sengun could have played the whole first half.

    Also not playing Holiday or Cam even a second was WILD behavior to me.

    Mazzulla is the youngest coach, underrated offensive talented mind....only 36 or 37.

    He has some defensive issues but in the East it is not as glaring.

    I told you guys. The rebounders are the ones who will play well in this offense, everyone else is a role player.

    Rockets 52 rebounds
    Warriors 36 rebounds

    We outrebounded the sh*t out of them and lost at home so I hope Udoka understands the adjustments he has to make.

    Not the biggest fan of Ime tbh, but he shouldn't change rotations just because someone is playing well/bad.

    He isn't the one that missed all those shots and committed those turnovers though.

    It wasn't only the young guys; even Fred looked nervous tonight.
