    Tank or not it doesn’t matter when the franchise is a cluster. At some point players will not want to play here.

    100% guarantee we beat the Spurs both games we play them this week. They are actually worse than us and will have the worst record end oc season.

    Silas is a bad coach at every level.

    If Silas coached high school boys, he would not help his kids improve. He wouldn’t even pick the right players at tryouts.

    Silas is the same type of coach that put Michael Jordan on JV to average 40 a game.

    If that's the case, I would love to see players go for the tank in spite of Silas's efforts.

    Rockets actually did double team him in the 3rd and then Thybulle started going off. But, basically the fake comeback happened anyway.

    I don't get why people are mad about Damian Lillard hitting 30 foot shots. He wasnt really even open on a lot of them.

    I thought the game was entertaining - that's all you can hope for

    Wrong. 1 year of intentional losing. Just like the Spurs.
    Past 2 years were legitimate suck just as any franchise after they lose their HOF player and contender dismantled. Usually those franchises are rewarded with #1 picks. In Cleveland case, 3 #1s and a #4 for losing lebron.
    Teams suck really bad when in the same position we're in.

    Some of yall need reality checks. Yall got spoiled by this franchises history, but every team goes through these rough years eventually.

    Imagine the Spurs with much more of a winning history and they deliberately throw away their young all star guard and dump their young big just to keep tanking but they fail to win a top 2 pick and continue to suck a few more years? It won't happen if they get Wemby...and that just comes down to luck. We haven't even drafted a player worth their slot yet bc of weak drafts. Thats not the Rockets fault. We just sucked at the wrong time. Until this season. The time is Yao.

    I’m starting to wonder if the players purposely playing bad for their spite of Silas? If so that speaks a lot of Silas “coaching abilities”

    It is. And I don't think anyone is complaining thay we are losing
    I don't think that even makes the top 5 chief complaints on this forum so that is why I am confused. None of the complaints actually are geared towards them winning this year unless it's coming from people who are anti tanking

    Of the top of my head here are the top things people "cry" about

    Green playing too much
    Green not getting enough respect
    Senguin not getting enough touches
    Kpj in or kpj out
    Jabari needing to be benched
    Silas needing to be fired
    Gm needing to be fired

    None of things are anti tanking per se as None of those things is really going to make the team any better (maybe slightly?)

    So in conclusion most people are not crying about the losing but really about how we are developing the team while losing
