    Lots going on, but keeping the guards out so long...Not so subtle anymore.

    At this point I’m convinced a coach from the local ymca can do better than Silas. It’s mind boggling how this clown still has a job

    An NBA coach letting a middle school zone beat you... The embarrassment alone should net 2 #1 picks.

    I don't think there's one player I'd prefer to see play more than the other.. That's where I'm at on this sorry ass team..

    This is the worst Rockets team I have ever seen. At least Francis came through with ridiculous highlight plays on the regular.

    yeah, it’s really embarrassing. Apparently we can’t teach our players how to beat a zone lol. I’ve seen it all year.

    At this point I’d rather have Lucas coach than Silas. I’m sick of seeing Silas clapping.

    It would ease the pain if they were really trying to tank. The sad reality is Silas out here trying to win games.

    This time next year we’ll have another top 5 pick on the court and a coach who understands how to attack the zone. Relax. :cool:

    Exactly. This game wasn't a tank. It was piss-poor coaching on how to beat a zone.

    I didnt watch a game since a month. I cant stand losing on purpose or being this bad as a coach. Or both
