    Bruh.. You got a J. green who disappears cause he soft and a Sengun who mentally has the competitiveness but lacks the stamina. We severely lack a go to scorer and it’s been no secret for years now.

    I will blame Ime for not playing Reed Sheppard this season.

    What is the point in playing Holiday this year if you won't play him in a pivotal game? You need shooting and buckets and won't develop a guy who the whole reason he was a lottery pick is because he's a flamethrower?

    Jalen Green gets not only the longest leash ever but an extension and Reed can't get at least 16 minutes per game?

    problem is the gm’s just as low iq and an even bigger snake. so we’re stuck under the udoka ceiling for the foreseeable future

    I’m not giving you that because that’s a given I 10000% agree, but even then you have no way forward in this NBA while being so ass from 3, not running plays and scrambling out the shot clock constantly . It’s always going to be this story

    Ime has no shooters... I think someone on this coaching staff would have helped him find someone he could trust.
    Still- no thought whatsoever of playing Whitmore, a guy who just scores, in the 3rd, when nothing else was working? A great coach takes a gamble. Seen it work too many times to think it's 100% fluke.

    That’s a lazy ass mindest. We are young and Jalen Green is a p***y. Period. He needs to go. Asking Fred, Alperen, Amen and Dillon to score for us isn’t going to get it done.

    I’m not worried about Udoka or our team. Udoka just showed Jalen is a pansy ass, soft, emo b**** and he gotta go. We don’t have a roster that has the stamina, and moreso, can score when it matters.

    The 8 man rotation runs until they have no legs anymore and then their bad shooters put up even worse percentages. FVV has been gassed since before the ASB.

    Kerr had full rotations all year and was able to go with the hot hand because he had more than 8 players to pick from when the playoffs came.

    Watching the Rockets all year knowing it is just going to end with them running out of air in the playoffs makes the team almost unwatchable.

    Other than the two big man lineup he has made no adjustments. And it's not like he thought up that idea himself. He copied it grom OKC.

    I love that Ime has improved this team. But, we are good on one end of the floor and terrible on the other end. I really don’t understand the lack of movement on offense. Part of it may be the lack of quality ball handlers and shooters, but I don’t understand four players standing stationary watching one guy dribble.

    I really don’t put any blame on Fred. Sure, he has limitations, but I think he would do well in a motion offense. But, we have no motion. Must be frustrating being a PG on a team that just stands around or misses shots.

    Did the Boston offense look like this when Ime was coaching there?

    But you gotta give me that cause it’s the damn truth. We have defense, but we have no scorers or anyone who has the ****in nuts to do. Hell, Amen had a nice rally by himself cause he competes.

    Competing is the game. Rockets had a chance, minus that emo p***y ass Jalen, to win. Get that b**** boy outta here already.

    Stubborn Ime - we went on a 14-2 run and was running once we stopped trying to work through Alpi and picked up pace

    You run no plays to get your best catch and shoot shooters open shots - Bari vs Hield

    Kerr wanted us to work through Alpi because he only shots 40% in paint and less than that vs Looney and Draymond and we did

    Who else is he supposed to run the offense through? We have a SG who wants to sit out a quarter at a time lmao

    Comparing Ime to milkhair (Kevin McHale for those that don’t know) is comical. We are all frustrated. Trust me. But what is he supposed to do? If anything, this year should prove Jalen Green is a bust and he gotta go.

    Ime has tried his best. Look, Ime changed the culture completely and made us the 2nd seed. He has flaws but he's the best coach we have for years.

    Ime clearly is not a perfect coach. He has his limitations. But he also prosesses a lot of good qualities.

    The Sengun iso never works. Whenever Sengun scores high with very poor FG%, rockets lose, plain and simple
    Sengun should be used as a point center, not someone who starts dribbling at the 3-pt line.
    Ime just doesn't figure that out.
