I don’t understand why so much of the media protects Silas. Anyone who has watched him coach can tell he’s a really poor head coach. I don’t care whether or not he was supposed to have Harden carry him. Being a nice person is not synonymous with being a good coach.
ESPN 97.5 is trying to tear apart the Rockets before the rebuild is even complete with these sensationalized headlines.
this is very reminiscent of when we fired McHale. the rockets got blasted for not only firing him. how could anyone fire mchale? and early in the season no less, they didn't even give him a chance. rather than objectively looking at how his performance got him fired. he was outreached badly and obviously the previous season and then he lost the locker room early the next season. this was harden entering his prime and it looked as much of a mess as our current team does today. I would say mchale and Silas are easily the worst 2 coaches in franchise history. both resorting to clapping when they didn't know what to do.
McHale wasn't that bad. The main reason he got fired is because he didn't get along with Harden and Harden pushed for him to be replaced. McHale tried to hold Harden accountable and ended up getting fired over it.
How dare you compare Silas to McHale. McHale much much better coach with a lifetime winning record. Silas worst record in nba history. C’mon man!!!!!!!!
If I was the owner I would want to find some sort of objective barometer to measure whether or not Stone is a liability to attracting good coaches and good free agents. I would want to find out what his reputation is at this point.
McHale was garbage, there's a reason y no one hired him after he "coached the team to success", the only difference between silas and McHale was one was blessed to have harden when he was younger and more able to carry. Smartest thing McHale did was let harden do all the work while he just sit there and not even coach
I hate this debate between blaming Silas and blaming Stone. It's so mean and hurtful. Why can't we come together and fire them both
McHe sucks as a coach. He sucked with the timberwolves, he sucked with the rockets. A more talented roster looked almost as stagnant on offense as this team.
