    How about he just gives KJ Martin his minutes, and stops playing Theis and Tate together except for very rare stints?

    Great post. I was just telling my buddy pretty much the same thing. The right coach isn't on the organization.

    I will add where is the accountability? These guys have not earned enough to have so much free will.

    Where is Silas nuts at? Trash coach/nice guy but damn.

    I know imo who is the right fit/best coach. They need a leader a sturn one at that. And we had him already in K.Sampson!!! U of H not letting him go nowhere though.

    I Guarantee you KPJ wouldn't try that not get back on defense arguing with ref bs with him and still see playing time.
    I bet Jalen Green passive playtime just sitting in corners like he PJ Tucker won't last either. You drafted #2. So worrying about stepping on toes and make plays got dammit! Cut to the hole/ attack the basket get the other team in foul trouble. Take good 3pt shots not heaves!! Earn that damn spot although you have the biggest leach of them all.

    House = Cut off top soon as we get a coach like that. Lol this dude did nothing right.

    Nwaba you too....cut/trade. You only wanna play for yourself bye-bye. You have teammates out there fool. Everytime you get the ball don't mean it's a straight line drive to the basket for you. Smh

    Wood.... you a pushy and don't want you on my team. Bye-bye. Traded... go put up them empty have hearted no defense numbers on someone else team. Bye-bye.

    Sengun and K.Martin Jr... come on up to the starter spot. Both of you guys make others better and you guys have excellent chemistry. A blind man can see it....(except Silas) you guys work hard and give 100 effort.

    Tate we love you.. you won't start but you minutes will be starter minutes. You rock solid.

    Gordon /DJ we going to look for trades for you guys asap. Thank u for your service.

    Mr.mister Wall....smh. Say what you think you on fam. You think we gone sit and pay for 40+mill for nothing!!! No one's trading for you man. Never. And you not about to sit on your ass and get paid for nothing. Get your ass in the starting lineup at pg and earn your bread and play the game you love.

    Kevin Porter Jr.... that pouting acting out **** don't work with this new staff. The p***y staff guys are gone. This league out you nothing. You having earned ****! Let your play speak for you.....Porter proceed to tell others... well Green ain't doing much better than me.....Well you not a #2 pick either. They have alot invested in him and need to see if they can develop him into the future star his upside shows. So if Porter pouts.... he gone cut/traded.

    See you want to set a direction with a young group. Mainly is that it's all out effort and learning from your mistakes. We get they young but if it's the same **** over and over you not learning...sit your ass down till you get it. Get some guys in here young/gleague/vets to show them how appreciative the position they in. I mean all they gotta do is look at J.Tate. he plays like he could get cut tomorrow. All out 100 effort even though he lacks the skill level of others.

    All this I would think Sampson would do‍♂️ dude don't bs. And he plays a big rotation of players and they on a short leash is they mess up. As should we should be. If they not learning from mistakes. Then we can focus on progressing. They young so it's steps to it.

    Anyways starting lineup should be

    (Whomever we can get for wood. We need a big center/rebounder/shot blocker types... like Javell MaGee)
    Sengun
    K.Martin Jr
    J.Green
    J.Wall

    Someone like Sampson would be ideal because most of these guys are college age anyway. And you’re right, the pouting and not getting back on defense would stop immediately. No way he’s going to allow that. But Sampson has a good gig and I don’t think he’s going to give that up at his age. Maybe if he was younger, but it wouldn’t make much sense for him to do it right now. He’s got a good thing going and he knows it. Someone like that would be interesting though.

    Remember harden didn't want silas to b hc and the org ignore him anyways. Lot of folks praise the org for doing that. Who is to blame for this hiring?

    This issue is starting to appear in the national sports news. Check Yahoo Sports today. Frankly, I feel sorry for Silas. He seems like such a nice person. But he just looks out of place. Apparently, HC is not the role for him. I think he and the Rockets need to face the obvious and move on.

    its not all his fault. stone put together a seriously flawed roster. there's no shooters, no playmakers, and a logjam at center. there was no reason to sign thies or nwaba. also no reason to sit wall to be honest. its not like KPJ deserves to start over him, not like he couldn't get minutes as a PG behind him. having vets like wall and wood act as main scoring options makes things easier for green and KPJ to develop. the defenses won't be focused on them.

    i think silas would've been a good coach for harden and rus. but the young guys need more structure, he needs to run some set plays, and he needs to stop trying to win games with thies and nwaba. lean into playing the rookies a lot of minutes even if they lose games people will understand. developing rookies might not be Silas' calling card which is why he seems like a poor fit right now, but I believe he can do it. he and stone can both fix this mess.

    Simply firing him wouldn't be enough.
    Maybe first, a tour of the city.

    He played Sengun 24 minutes. Getting better. Now just never play him less than 20 minutes again. Ever.

    Just saw Silas get escorted to the back during a timeout. Walked right past me. Anybody hear on the broadcast what might have happened?
