    I do not wish to be rude to our respected Head Coach Stephen Silas, but yesterdays game causes
    me to call you attention to the terrible game played by our lead Point Guard John Wall, Although Wall had 15 assists in the game most was in the first half, Wall was playing close to just what is expected from a Point Guard but what happened in the second half and mostly in the last 1/4 was he tried to take over the whole game. I cant remember how many shots he too but he missed them all , We had been leading by 19 points and he terrible play caused us to loose the game!
    Coach Silas, I did not see team Basketball during the last 1/4 and you sat there and did nothing. We as fans need you to be more active in coaching our players during the game. You and Wall lost us yesterdays game. Shame!!

    Why do u seem upset that the team lost? That’s what they’re supposed to do.

    there has been no team ball all season, u should be used to that by now

    yeah, Wall was all-time selfish last night, but that’s who he is

    Nothing wrong with playing losing basketball when you are trying to tank

    No. I'm against this. We must tank, get the #1 pick, and play good basketball and make the playoffs at the same time. This team.. OMAGERD!

    I agree. I, too, expect masterful coaching while still maintaining one of the bottom 3 worst records in the league. Because that makes sense.

    We lost 20 games in a row, if he's really as tight with Wall as people say he is then nothing is going to change at least until he's gone. So sit back and enjoy the show (tank).

    What was funny to me was like the OP said I the first game Augustine handed over a double deficit lead to Wall and Wall proceeded to take over and try to be the man instead dishing out then assists and ultimately lost us the game.

    In the second game in a similar scenario, Wall came into the game in The fourth and right off the bat took an ill advised non-open three point shot and before I could blink my eye Silas took hi mOut the game. Wall wasn’t even for a minute. Silas must didn’t like that Wall came in gunning and jsut set him back On the bench.

    I was lmao. Because I thought on Friday night that if we left Augustine in we would’ve won that game.

    Like really, how hard is it for people to grasp this??

    Being the 8th worst team in the NBA would be a disaster.
    It is bottom 3/4 or playoffs.
    No talent to make playoffs
    Soooo....

    i'm sure silas can coach better to win games if he wanted to. but why would you want him to at this point? we need to increase odds of keeping our pick... not decrease it

    as long as silas is doing a good job developing key players like cwood, kpj, tate, and kj martin then he's doing his job for this season. judge his performance 2-3 seasons from now when we actually try to field a competitive team.

    There was a red button.

    Tilly, Morey or someone pushed it. Simple.

    Ahhhhh No, you must be a season ticket holder O.P.

    The answer is, "No Refund," to your next question.

    It's in the small print, in the event that we trade away our franchise player and suck; "No Refund for you!"

    Would be hilarious if Tilman privately told Silas "Want to keep your job? Guarantee me a top 4 pick this season. Anything other than a championship and you are fired."
