    Context is not moving goalposts genius.

    OKC is not same level as Suns or Blazers.

    That is a very simple yet irrefutable fact.

    And Rockets were actually in those games for almost 3 quarters.

    Why is this so difficult for you to comprehend?

    When I find myself getting angry about sports, I just remind myself none of this matters and Silas and the Rockets don't know me and don't care that a cheer for them.

    I like D-Rock except when he disagrees he will almost always call the person he is disagreeing with stupid. People on here are just giving, like, their opinions, man

    Why y’all blaming Theis .

    I want sengun to play too . But he needs to play for wood .

    theis and sengun are our best big 4/5 combo .

    The team looks dramatically different with Green handling the ball. I really like what i see and this game may open up things for him in terms of how he’s utilized. Much more efficient and has more lanes to attack and make plays. This could be the start of something and i agree there’s just something about wood and porter. Physically gifted but poor character guys and mentally unsound. Wood’s body language was poor when he was subbed out in 3rd qtr. then he just stood there at the end of the bench refusing to sit. He also gives up on running back and opts to complain about fouls or in disbelief he missed an easy shot. Rockets would be better off without KPJ and Wood and the rebuild would be delayed even further. Id suspect green to be really good in the years to come and maybe one day within 3-5 years surrounded with better talent can lead his team to the playoffs. These painful experiences come before the glory.

    Exactly. People talking about Theis. He’s playing well. He deserves to play. Sengun should be taking Wood’s minutes.

    I said Theis was on a roll not Sengun. Silas liked the matchup. This is nothing new in coaching as several coaches roll with players playing well. Has been the case for decades.

    comparing a rookie to 26 year old Christian Wood is dumb AF

    What was Wood doing at Jalen Green’s age? Wood wasn’t even relevant until 2 years ago…

    most people didn’t read the Atlantic article and are more so upset with certain players getting time / lineups …

    Silas really isn’t the problem … it’s more a talent issue.
