    Be hilarious if he was just chilling & tanking this year and comes out as a coach of the year candidate next year

    Hopefully we keep the play where Wood gets the defensive rebound and then waves off the guards and jogs it up court then stops about 5 feet behind the three-point line and looks for an open guy and/or a driving lane and then after realizing that of course no one is wide open because the defense had ample time to get set he then passes the ball out to KPJ or Jalen or EGo when there is 7 seconds left on the shot clock and those guys have to force up a contested shot. That's my favorite play.

    Silas is more offensive.

    Period.

    Strictly speaking about coaching of course.

    If he has a switch to go to, I just doubt he has.... yeah people think a top pick guarantees you a ship, it does not.

    I want a better assistant or better head coach, why does Golden State get Atkinson as assistant and Tilfart cannot pay major buck?

    Stone needs to cut the fat and let those guys walk or trade them so they're not even an option for Silas!

    Where are you in my life? I can basically burn down your house and you will forgive me. Dude had his chances to show what he can do and I am not basing it off wins and losses at all.

    Or cut the fat and get rid of Silas so he isn't an option for the Houston Rockets.

    Yeah but think about the era we're in. The 7th worst team makes the play in. So we're talking about two spots of difference really if you think we'll be 5th worst.

    They're going to put on muscle and it's going to make them better defenders and finishers at the basket, seems highly likely. These two - Jalen and Alperen - score efficiently and are not likely to be huge liabilities on defense next season. They will help raise the floor a bit too high for us to get a great pick. Not talking about playoffs and all that. Just enough to keep us out of the top 5 odds.

    Going to have to tank with an iron fist if that's the direction we're going.

    Agreed. Really didn’t understand the Matthews over KJM and sometimes Jaygup over the last few games. KJM should have been getting a march larger share of minutes than Matthews and wouldn’t mind if he ate into Tate’s minutes.
