Lucas spoke up against Wood and KPJ in the locker room. Silas seems to have no control . We don't need a weakling as a nominal head coach.
Tonight confirmed my hunch that it was Lucas truly running the team. Love the fact that he had the balls to confront these Divas and rip into their lack of effort. Should be the head coach doing it and that is why they need to let Silas go. Don’t like the soft attitudes of Silas, Weaver, and Hornicek. Time to make some real changes to this incompetent staff.
And we had posters on here shtting on Harden for not liking the silas coach pick. Too much of a diva and other nonsense narrative. James bailed on us but at least he had the insight to see a bad coach after having McHale as a coach for so long. dd comments r funny.
Only been in the league because of nepotism and riding his father’s coattails. He has zero authority on the court..he may be as mentally unstable as KPJ with his awful body language and mood swings. He simply doesn’t have the testicular fortitude to be a coach.
https://www.statscrew.com/basketball/stats/c-silaspa01 His father sucked as a coach too......come on.......no leadership whatsoever. Young players need a straight forward coach who is clear in what is expected, someone that will fight for them, and hold them accountable. Silas is not that guy. DD
All this stupid KPJ-C-Wood drama happening under his watch is overshadowing him robbing Green of a career high by once again taking him out way too early in a blowout while Jokic is stayed in padding his stats. This man is either trolling or has zero awareness. It’s infuriating.
Can’t stand Silas, but taking Green out was fine. Why risk getting him hurt for a career high in his rookie season? He just got off the injured list and is playing 30min a game. He needed to come out. He is going to go over 30 on a regular basis in his career.
Its Trump's fault. Kidding. But seriously, I've been saying it for awhile now, I think Jeff Van Gundy would do wonders for this team. Kind of like a father than never had. I kind of have a weird feeling he's going to be the coach. I'm not psychic I don't see any clues I just have a weird feeling. I say that because on the last ESPN broadcast when the Rockets this year we're on National Television against the Pistons I noticed jvg was picking apart all the plays kind of in a way to be judging our players and Silas. Kind of give me a vibe he wanted to coach our team.
James Harden didn't care who the coach was. Steve Nash had how much coaching experience? And remind me again who Nash played the majority his career under? Edit: Tillman wanted to hire JVG by the way but Harden balked at that so that's why we even have f***** Silas in the first place. https://rocketswire.usatoday.com/20...tedly-wanted-jeff-van-gundy-as-rockets-coach/
Silas needs to be gone NOW or at the latest after this season ends. We need to bring someone like JVG in here which luckily I think may actually happen as that was Tillman's first choice before bringing Silas in hoping to salvage Harden mess. Right now Jalen is still young and isn't dropping 30 a night...but that could change quickly if he reaches his potential. If we wait until after next season, or even worse, the season after we are going to risk having Harden 2.0 (or literally name any superstar who had a weak/soft coach) and he's not going to listen to some guy we bring in because in his mind he's already a walking bucket and didn't need some hard ass getting on him to reach all star status. So who cares if he takes possessions off on defense or makes several careless/stupid turnovers every game.
Dude we had reports on who he wanted as coach, but the Rockets aka tilman prob picked the cheapest option aka silas. Harden didn't want silas and folks thought cause silas wasn't gonna pander to him. All I know is harden could tell by now who can't coach. Nash has high as sht bbiq and is a hof who the fk is silas? Yea thought so.
I'm sorry, but this is beyond the coaching staff. Wood and KPJ were known issues and were high risk, high reward types.
Silas does like 5 questionable coaching moves per game. This one ruined all the momentum the Rockets had in the first and was probably the start of KPJ losing it. Remember this is right after we got a slam and the Nuggets were struggling to score. He proceeded to sub in a shitty lineup that blew the lead. You can tell some of the other players looked confused as well. Fans were even confused
Looks like the Sengun Minutes MicroMonitor Mafia is getting some direct pushback on this issue from.... Alperen Sengun. "At first, I think the coach was watching me a little," Şengün told Socrates, according to a translated version of the article. "He knew my body wasn't used to this pace. He was protecting me in case I might get injured, that's what he said. Of course, people want to play, I wanted to (play more), but sometimes you feel bad after the (game) when you get (a lot of playing) time ... Looking at the moment, over 30 games are behind, my body got used to this pace, I feel better. Of course, there are ups and downs, it is impossible not to get tired during the weeks with back-to-back (games). Sometimes it happens like this: You play away, you leave as soon as the (game) is over, you come home at 3 a.m., you have another (game) the next night. It's an amazing pace." "(The Rockets) played nine games in 15 days, we used to play nine games in nine weeks in Turkey, we did it in two weeks here," Şengün said. "It's hard to get used to it right away."
I heard somewhere that good coaches cut or severely discipline players who scream and throw things at their assistant coaches and then drive off and leave their team at halftime.
