    I honestly can't think of a single reason to hide your 'offense' during pre-season.

    It's not like Football where plays are top secret, every team knows every other teams plays, it's no secret. It was just a flat out dumb decision. These guys need all the actual practice they can get and to waste the entire preseason letting them run around like headless chickens was very stupid.

    Better buckle up - it’s going to be like this all season long. Young pups don’t stand a chance - take your lumps now

    What kind of plays do you want to run for him when he can’t shoot and every layup gets blocked. He’s had zero dunks. What athleticism?

    Short arm players have it tough in the NBA, unless they can shoot.
    Green has short arms and an average dribbler below average.

    Hopefully there is actually an offense and it wasn't just bullshit

    KPJs body language is flat out terrible sometimes.

    Misses a lay up then decides to walk back up the court.

    Rockets are killing it on the boards but it's not impacting the score.

    8 vs. 18 AST
    11 vs. 5 TOS
    15% vs. 46% 3P

    Rockets not taking care of the ball OR getting easy shots, at the rim or from 3.

    Sounds like they need playmaking help.

    Silas has to go. Offense right now is less complexed than my local park, with defensive transitions and effort on the amateur level. One thing is new guys but he trained some of them for a while, Wood Kpj Tate look clueless too

    Should be even more reason to be excited about Green.

    Why does KPJ switch to his off hand every time he shoots a layup? Just use your left hand!

    Literally after every one of his missed layups or turnovers he refuses to run back, dating to last year. It’s why he’s rated as one of the worst defenders in the entire league. His man to man d is actually not that bad. Would seem like an easy fix but it just doesn’t change.
