    That was the exact quote I was referring to in my above post in response to @pippendagimp on believing Stone about the tax vs believing Morey ....

    Just saw Silas on First Take - Screaming A and Max like him - will hopefully stay off the rockets back for a while and give the guy a chance.

    First Take and Stephen Silas Laughing at Mike Dantoni of his 1 way offense and no defense was really funny to me.

    Tillman Fertitta was right about Mike Dantoni and now he can't be a Head Coach anywhere, got a Asst Coach job for the Nets.

    That only means he’s cerebral... you don’t work with Morey for that length of time and be a dumbass. He’s good at contracts.

    I mean, seriously. Look at those bullet points. YES! Thanks for summing those points up.

    Silas made a great strong impression with me.

    Now you see why I've veered away from doom and gloom lately. I have been watching interviews and reading about Silas for the past year or so as I saw how good Dallas was doing and figured MDA was on his way out. I actually think next season will be a clearly better team than last year. Is it enough to win a championship? I think so but it's going to be very very hard.

    Additionally I think Stone is going to be an incredible GM. It is imperative that the team brings in multiple new analytic types and bright minds for the front office to ensure that we continue to make good decisions and we will see if that happens but Stone is going to be great.

    We are going to be damn good.

    Once we get a really good big man our offense will really take off and be less predictable and defense and rebounding will improve.

    Why TF did Silas keep calling Lucas "Luke"?

    He wants versatility and a big man, two most requested things. Less iso since our guys had to work too hard for their shots he said. Funny how MDA failed to see this.

    I really hope the Rockets YouTube channel asks Stephen Silas to do a Presentation on his playing style on Offense and Defense.

    James Harden really needs to become a better Shooting Guard off the ball. Moving without the Ball is very crucial late in games.

    Okay so what a lot of you people dont understand is that the way Morey and Dantoni worked was always "Do more with less." Our play style was just maximizing the talent on our roster. That point is gonna really hit a lot of you really hard this season.
