    Dear CF,

    If you thought the franchise was a dumpster fire you’ve underestimated the situation greatly. Myself included.

    Sincerely,
    Dark Days Ahead.

    Fingers crossed.

    Lucas is pretty grizzled.

    And is a former HC.

    Who is in charge of defense?

    are they going to continue all switch all the time defense?

    new coaching staff is reason enough to have some excitement here. Not that they’ll be great - they might suck - but I don’t care how quasi-successful the last 4 years were... surely you were all as “bored” as me watching the style the past 18 months or so??

    even if not major changes... and again... even if it doesn’t work and fails completely... at least t will be something different to analyze and either be happy or complain about. Lol. Hopefully.

    Weaver is the D coach most likely.

    Silas already stated that they wouldn't just vary the offense to be less predictable, but also the defense, so they won't be switching all the time.

    I'm very curious to see how successful Silas will be in implementing a hybrid defense. Elston Turner tried to do same thing until Harden and rest of the team demanded return to switch everything.

    But with good reason, Rockets were much more effective more efficient and more comfortable executing switch everything vs. the hybrid defense.

    That’s a really solid coaching staff and you can bet your ass they didn’t come cheap. Except Diop ;)

    Good to know that Silas favors increasing pace.

    Even with Wall.

    Now let's add more guys that like to run and finish.

    The longer the better.
