    That ain't the story bro.

    I think folks got mad cause u called kpj playing thug ball or something, that's way different than overglorified street ball. Calling folks thug ain't a good look.

    Some feels that thugs has a negative connotation for African Americans.

    It
    For those who know recognize thug n gang are synonyms basically which those in politics / police etc are thugs as well, even though Pac said it means The Hate U Give.....

    Similar to identifying people as two continents(misnomer) isn't a good look neither because Africa and America are continents that houses nations inside their magical borders

    “Thug: a member of a group or organization of robbers and assassins in India who waylaid and strangled their victims, usually travelers, and stole their belongings. They were suppressed by the British in the 1830s”

    This has nothing to do with race by definition and I used to describe KPJ’s selfish gameplay which seemed not to be constrained by any type of structure or rule.
    I would call him the same way if he was white or yellow. Let’s say if Garrison plays like a headless chicken, the same thing goes for him. Ok?

    I'm sorry if it was understood in a pejorative tone for African-Americans. As I said, I don’t accept a discriminatory behavior against a player based on racial differences. Whoever he is should be judged by the game they play.

    Kenny Atkinson is the most reasonable choice for me to replace Silas. Hope it happens

    I was told by a reliable friend that Silas had to win last night’s game to save his job. The team knew the situation and played their tails off for him. It’s a positive that they rallied together to help their beloved coach. Wish we could see that drive, determination, and effort on a nightly basis.

    If the job of a coach of a rebuilding team is dependent on the result of one game, and on top of that the team knows this, we have more serious problems than the coach.

    I would have preferred a reliable sacking.

    When Silas is fired, I'd like to see Sam Cassell at least get an interview.

    I hope the Rockets hire Frank Vogel. When we eventually have to kick his ass out, we will show the world we have so much better class than the F king Lickers.
