    Monty Williams and Stephen Silas are bad Coaches.

    Monty Williams only accepted the job because of the Money, even he acknowledged the Huge Contract.

    Nobody wants to go to Detroit, only for the Money.

    I want Ausar Thompson.

    Rafael Stone needs to save him from Detroit, trade for him quick. Trade for him for Future Picks.

    Ausar Thompson doesn't even get many shots, you know Jaden Ivey will put up 20 shots.

    Rockets I think will be on a Long Road Losing also. At Home I think will be over .500 at least.

    Jeez the Pistons fans are going nuclear right now, calling Cade a bust, wanting to fire everyone...but honestly from an outsider's perspective I can see that there's talent on the team and they won't be bad forever.

    I wonder if this is how Rockets fans came across over the last three years as well? I'd like to think that we were less mopey, but I've already erased a lot of those dark years from my mind

    It is fixable but I do not know how and when.....great shooters are not really easy to come by.

    They just need better spacing....and shooting of course.

    Bro you don't have to remember the dark years just to see how mopey this forum is. Go look at the GARM, people are ready to burn Green at the stake and also were ready to ship out Jabari after a couple of games.

    It's still a mopey place where people lose their **** over a loss lol.

    Please name one coach that's going to win with Detroit's crappy roster. Nobody is winning with the last few Rockets teams either, but that's a different matter entirely.

    Anyway, Detroit - They have like 4 centers and 0 shooting whatsoever.

    Monty Williams - Phil Jackson - whoever - it's not winning anything.

    Winning is harder than it looks with a crap roster. Look no further than legendary Popovich clocking in at about 1 game better than Detroit despite a much better balanced team and a much more dominant player in Wemby (even at this stage) than anyone Detroit has

    System sucks.

    The player material I view it as mediocre in NBA talent...maybe below mediocre but not that bad.....

    They got to have veteran stars at this point, legitimate NBA stars....and shooting,

    Just do what the Sacramento Kings did and they will rise to at least 30 plus Wins.

    It is not even that hard.......but one has to make the first step.

    Even if you do not have a De'Aaron Fox, you can get maybe a Jalen Brunson type on the market.

    If you give up some one like Cade, you still got Thompson, Duren, Ivey.....

    but you have to nail the Cade transfer, like really nail it....

    Drafting BPA over fit is one of the dumbest strategies in the modern NBA. I understand when you have an All Timer like Wemby or Zion. But if you don't, and you're Detroit, you have Cam Whitmore there and you take Ausar. You have Mathurin or Sharpe and you take Ivey. You could have signed Schroeder in the offseason as well. Schroeder/Sharpe/Cunningham/Stewart/Duren or something of that nature. But now you have a bunch of talented pieces that can't ****ing shoot. Cade can't penetrate. Something is up between Monty and Ivey as well.

    Everyone clowned us for overpaying for FVV but it's money well spent. This is what we'd look like without his guidance. PG's like Rondo, Rubio, FVV, CP3 and Conley are worth so much more than people give them credit for.
