    I'm done with Ime officially. Only way he can regain my trust is if he manages to bring us back at least to the NBA Finals and I'm willing to bet towards the tip jar that it ain't happening

    The Rockets not doing anything like that because then they will have to run their organization like professionals instead of like a AAU team. Ime is an assistant coach at best, he’s not a head coach. Stone is afraid to bring someone like Malone in because he will see Stone’s been bullshitting for years now. It would put pressure on everyone to get their **** together. These dudes just collecting checks, they aren’t trying to improve this team.

    We’ve allowed Ime to sabotage our draft picks’ confidence(traded 2 of them, one of them got traded for nothing because he wouldn’t allow Ime to sabotage his career), he also prevented us from signing James Harden and instead signed a garden gnome to a even bigger contract. Then proceed to double down with said Garden Gnome this past offseason and now they are facing karma for the incompetence. Hopefully someone gets fired soon. I want Stone and Ime gone. I’m sick of this amateur bullshit

    At some point, you can't just say it's the players or injuries or guys missing shots. The same thing keeps happening. This is the 3rd double digit 4th quarter lead they've blown to a vastly inferior Western Conference opponent in the last 3 weeks after the previous collapses to the Pelicans and Kings.

    Ime doesn't seem to have a clue how to get these guys to execute in the 4th. He makes no adjustments, he lets the same players keep bricking the same shots and making the same careless turnovers, and his specialty which is supposed to be defense goes AWOL in crunch time.

    Ime and Stone preached in regard to Green that this franchise expects growth. I have seen no growth from Ime at all.

    On a side note, what happened to the Terror Twins? They haven't terrorized anybody all season. What happened to the full court pressure? It's almost as if they know that offense gets you paid, but I prefer them both last year when they were 2-way players.

    Ime Udoka is the Rueben Amorin of the NBA.

    We keep giving away games against teams with losing records. What the hell is Stone waiting for to make a change?

    Right now that appears to be the case. And even worse, the Spurs have already leapfrogged us.

    If they get serious about cleaning house, then Stone can go out the door as well.

    Ime's job is safe, which just means the Rockets are cooked.

    Reed played like a woos today but part of it was also just being tired of Ime's doghouse bullshit. Not just him, outside of Amen nobody's body language looks like they want to be there.

    The kings haven't won a game in 2026 and we are about to give it to them

    Threw everybody under the bus last post game. **** this guiy

    Its not Ime fault we missing layups and open shots...Jabari missing open 3s, DFS all of a sudden cant shoot, Reed is continuing to get hunt on defense giving up points
    This year's team is lacking chemistry.

    Did you seriously come in here with a strawman to vindicate this garbage ass coach when the points you're wondering about were clearly elucidated many posts above yours?

    You might as well go about defending Ty Lou and Steve Balmer while you're at it

    I guess it is not Ime's fault that he cannot prepare the team for road games as well.

    Not his fault that he got paid 11 million......
