    If tilman Fertitta has a brain. He hires Silas.
    Hiring John Lucas means 1 thing to me. Tilman is doing everything in the book to convince harden to stay in Houston.

    Silas is a no brainer here. If u hire Silas you can still keep Lucas as a developmental guy here!

    silas shouldn’t be as expensive as JVG in my opinion you literally just have to give him a slight raise from his current assistant coach salary. Hell take it to jump to HC.

    John Lucas - cheap hire. Right in #Tilman's wheelhouse.

    Give me Silas everyday.

    a much better thread would be Silas vs JVG

    Silas vs Lucas is not a competition

    Silas won’t be too expensive either. Lucas isn’t about money it’s about the players wanting to coast and run the team.

    You know there isn't a single person on this board in their right mind picking Lucas to be our head coach.

    If it's Silias we actually have a shot this season. If not, there is going to be a fire sale by the deadline.

    To Tilly, that makes a huge difference. This is same guy who lowballed MDA for a measley 500K.

    Think LTS.

    Love Lucas but as development coach, not head coach.

    Silas is hands down choice.

    Keep JVG in the booth.

    Something to remember here, we already f*cking have Lucas lol. No one else is going to offer him a HC gig.

    Hire Silas, make Lucas the main assistant if he matters so much for Harden/WB/House.

    It's not like Silas is in such a strong position to make coaching team demands anyways.

    Silas postgame interview has me impressed.

    Having a Smart Black Coach who can win really express his deep thoughts on the game, have eye contact each media member goes a long way. He definitely is a Positive person which is needed, that knows X and Os, very studious.

    James Harden can win a MVP Award, just by having a Coach who can promote Harden with a Positive Image.

    Mike Dantoni seemed to never to defend James Harden the right way.
