    Watch Wall play is like being in the boxing ring with someone that is 10 times better than you. No matter what happens you are going to get knocked out, it’s just when not if.

    Can we please just call up Porter, I would rather watch him go 5 for 20 from the field rather than John Wall and Dipo

    We are really owning the tank rankings right now. Starting to feel hopeful of keeping our pick

    I think Silas is going to cry.

    Ya at leaat if he's struggling it's because he's 20 and has plenty of room to grow. These guys are washed. There is no reason to watch a Rocket game with this backcourt.

    i agree that i think Wall should have more assists, but that also comes down to the guy shooting the ball to get him the assist. If nwaba is taking the shot, you don't have much chance

    Until he starts going 5 for 20 or he has some emotional collapse and we start saying it's the coach's fault. We're going to run out of people to blame. :D

    No one expects KPJ getting called up and this team being good. The dude is 20. He is no where close to being a lead player on a good team.

    An ideal season now for me is this team retaining a top 4 pick which means a lot more losing but seeing positive development growth from guys like KPJ and KMJ.

    I think Minny prevails as the team with the best tank commanders. But we may come in second.

    All we need is to land any of the top 4 picks to retain it so we just have to be the 3rd worst team for a safer probability.

    I feel for the man. Yes, I’m starting to have some doubts, but he’s waited his whole life for this and has been dealt a pretty shitty hand so far. Having said that, he needs to make some adjustments. What they would though, I’m just not sure. These guys are just really bad right now.

    I took a quick look at Rocket history (back to 1980), and ONCE we finished dead last (1982-83). Didn't see another second or third to last finish. So we wont be the worst Rockets team in history, but we might be the 2nd worst.

    He’s not helping his case with questionable subs and incoherent offensive philosophy. He takes timely time outs though there is that.

    I expected an offense that resembles DAL but having that Luka level player typically make coaches appear smarter than they are.

    I’m rooting for him, but when the leader looks defeated how are the guys following him supposed to react?

    Maybe this team has quit on Silas - then what?

    Too much to overcome. Silas will be the Rockets version of Bo Porter.

    The dude also might have mental disorders too, let him take his time. His playing time isnt going anywhere.
