    silas gonna ruin all the talent and decrease their value... hes probably still on Cuban payrolls
    what he did so we deserve to be his guinea pigs?

    you treating him like championship pedigree coach... and he couldn't win in g league let alone nba

    if you have 10 million dollars you entrust it with an elite bank... you dont give to a beggar to take care of it....

    we have so much precious talent entrusted to a clueless coach who has no value... you couldnt even get 2nd rounder for silas...

    Brian Cook Jones is the real Deal.

    I can't even front, I had no ****ing idea who Compazzo was really. Dude can really ****ing ball though, gotta give him that. 5'10 but didn't look remotely undersized at all with how he played, definition of a role player doing everything he needed to on the court.

    I've seen him playing in the international games, dude was always a stud, there's a reason why Argentina always performed so well, Scola and Campazzo had that team work that made the dream work

    Campazzo is a lot like JJ Barea on the court

    The tough Rockets coach cant guide KPJ. The soft Rockets coach cant guide KPJ. His previous "medium" coach in Cleveland couldnt guide him, same coach this year all of a sudden has good team chemistry. That seems quite of bit of coaches who are "losing" KPJ

    I think people need to start realising, Tilman really doesn't know a thing about basketball. Of course he's not going to make the right decisions.

    How much evidence do we need of this.

    He's more likely to extend Silas to a lifetime deal than he is to get rid of him.

    You can barely put together a complete sentence, much less string a few of them together to make a coherent thought.

    You basically have 3 go to responses, none of which are even a little bit insightful or interesting:
    - a gif
    - to blame the coach, without ever articulating why.
    - a poor attempt at whataboutism almost always beginning or ending with "lolololol"

    You are predictable and boring. Basically a bot, who cant accept the reality of where the Rockets are.

    Take a hint from D Rock and hide in shame. People will forget all the dumb positions you have hardlined over the past few months.

    I feel like Jokic wouldn't last 20 minutes under coach Silas. All that running around having to set screen after screen after screen after screen, would be tiring for the big man.

    You are horrendously understating one of the greatest players of all time then lol

    Jokic is the MVP... in Denver of all places. He has a career averaged of 37 mpg in the playoffs

    All good boyo.

    That's why i'm so high on Sengun. Because I realise how good Jokic is, and Sengun getting into the same sentence as Jokic will be amazing.

    It was the right choice. JVG would not have helped this situation one bit.

    It's easy to point fingers and everyone likes to blame someone for failure, but people forget the facts.

    1. The Rockets are probably the youngest and most experienced team in the league
    2. The Rockets are really bad
    3. Nuggets are probably much better than their record indicates

    The verdict on Silas is still out and will be still out until he is in a position to win some games with better players either through development or trade.

    Right now he has a bunch of young inexperienced guys with a easily malcontent Wood and Gordon - who really the only player who is putting the effort in at both ends of the court and doing it well consistently.

    Up until last night, I thought that Green, KP3, Seguin, Tate, and a few others have showed vast improvement and the Rockets organization was indeed showing they are good at development.

    I think it's wise to keep that apparatus in place in a noncompetitive season instead of firing a coach and trying to get someone who wants to win a few more games for nothing and sacrifice development for it.

    I think Silas would struggle in a coaching contest with Olive Oil.
