Kevin Porter Jr. Out with a Bruised Ego

 

Still don’t know how this team broke the franchise record for 3s in a game

 

Ain’t even mad. We’re inching closer to the #1 pick

 

Wood is not at fault. I don’t blame him when his starting point guard refuses not get him involved. The issues run deeper. Bad roster put together. With pieces who are clearly selfish declining vets . Have to start from beginning

 

Nobody wants to play for him.

 

You can't lose 19 in a row and not get a top 3 pick. All focus should be on getting that pick. Tank it up, people.

 

Wall got his quick 5 assist and said **** passing for the night.

 

Exactly. People keep trying to blame Silas, but the offense is creating open shots we just have absolutely NO consistent shooters right now. Guys in and out of the line up still. This whole thing is a mess, so I don’t blame him. Any other coach would be losing with this team right now.

 

Does Silas actually talk to anyone in the Rockets organisation?? He never knows ****

 

He's often the only person who is asked the hard questions. He's done more PR than coaching it feels like. Stone puts too much of that on his plate. The Rockets need to hire a person to handle the hard questions because Stone isn't apparently that guy. He shows up when it's going well and disappears.

The response was strange.

I don't want to extract anything from it but the circumstances around the whole thing was weird.

 

Gotta respect the 100% committment shown by this team to the tank. I never expected this kind of dedication and consistency. I thought they would half-ass it, but they are really all-in on the tank job. Pretty impressive.

 

they truly are. if they weren't desean tate would be playing close to 36 minutes a game, as one of the best defenders....instead they are playing ten players, spreading the minutes out, giving all the young guys run. kudos to tilman for giving the tank order.

 

Christian Wood might as well be a Point Forward since John Wall and Victor Oladipo cant play Point Guard. Kevin Porter Jr is Out also.

 

I like Wall but man it seems like he just can’t run the offense consistently the whole game.

Part of being a point guard is to make the game easier for your teammates. I see Porter Jr makes the game easier but I am not sure if Wall is doing that at all.

 

Don’t pull that James Harden bullshit

 

I am surprised he did not say . .. "I don't know about any injury."

Positive is we're in next to last place--the tank continues!

 

I don't think the Rockets can rely on Kevin Porter Jr. Due to random outburst or whatever being upset.

Cade Cunningham is really the Only Option the Rockets really need at this point.

TTP?

 

You saw how well the Rockets played against the Jazz with KPJ running the offense? Wall and Oladipo just sucks the life out of the team because they are only playing for themselves. Christian Wood is your best player yet he gets less shots than both of them.
