    Man, I really feel bad for Silas, you can tell how badly he wants things to go well.

    Great bounce back game. The offense runs so much better with Wall in the lineup (9-4 record). Gordon continues to look his healthiest since joining Houston and Tate played his best game. Wood's re-injury looked pretty bad. May the Lord -- or spirits.. whatever you believe in -- bless his ankle.

    I'm hoping Silas was sharing what he saw from the sideline perspective as the injury occurred.

    I watched the injury to Wood in slow mo and the defense by Brooks (24) and Morant(12) looks suspect.
    They both converging together to impede his forward movement.

    The real problem was Brooks lunged his left leg/foot across Woods landing space......like a barricade making Wood hop over him This caused Wood to adjust his stride right onto Morant’s foot.

    Watching in slo mo will piss you off.

    dem homer shades are on too tight bro. making it sound like two players trying to take out a player when they down 20, for what purpose? playin the long game by taking out wood for a longer period of time to stop us from making playoffs?

    Personally i just thought it was a reckless fast break by wood, we were up 20 and wood didn't really have full control of the ball and that unfortunate accident 2 occur, pretty sure there was no bad intention. but u can post your theories if it makes u cope better with our player's injuries i guess.

    I think Wood should limit his coast-to-coast plays. Just let a guard dribble it up.

    That’s why I emphasized ‘in slo mo’ it looked like a BS move by Brooks. Re frkn lax bruh.

    Out of all the moves we made, none was bigger than signing Silas. I was one of those people that wanted Van Gundy back, but Silas has been amazing from the start, even when things werent going well. Great coach and one I hope we hold on to for a long time.

    we can't, that's one of his strengths, to have other bigs backpedaling on the break. they stand no chance against wood. its also where he gets his easiest buckets.

    I didn't even watch the video.

    Saw it in real time and it brought back bad memories.

    I hope Wall’s shot continues to fall from three.

    Hopefully he has done what Rondo has done and make himself into a respectable outside shooter.
