Today was the first time I seen Wood look visibly mad at the end of the game

    Silas needs to explain to our guards that WOOD is the number 1 option.

    There is literally not a single stat that supports your arguments. Virtually everyone one of his stats skyrocketed since his 2018 - 2019 season. His 3pt% jumped from like .28 to .4. His TS% went from .585 in early 2018 to a consistent .64 this season, near Embiid's stats. He did hurt his ankle, which happens...then he comes back and drops 27 points on 16 shots. You have to offer amorphous points because the facts don't bear out your positions. But hey, go ahead and keep lusting over unproven draft picks like Jalen Green (KPJ looked way better in the GLeague).

    The coach vs Wall

    The time is at the deadline. If Wall is not traded Silas will have to bench him and play Porter to take control of his team. Silas or Wall one has to go. If Wall doesn’t get moved look for coaches (yes plural) to finish the year. This is a mess with no answer. Wall will not let the youth growth happen because he will not let Silas coach. The tank is not intended to be this good. I truly believe fist fights between players will start happening soon.

    Selfish moron John Wall and Victor Oladipo believe they are the first option.

    When Christian Wood and Kevin Porter Jr are better players than them.

    I don't really see the point of your post. There's been ONE Lebron AD level player in the past 5 years in the top 5 and that's Luka. Sure there have been all stars like Brown, Tatum, Zion, but those guys are not true franchise players either.

    Having Wood on the team is not mutually exclusive to trying to get a Franchise player. You still need good players to fill out the roster, and Wood level players are hard to come by even drafting the top 5.

    The NBA is a player driven league, so of course Silas has no real power in that locker room. Of course, there is a difference in upsetting James Harden vs. upsetting John Wall/Victor Oladipo.

    Wood's outburst is along the same lines as Harden, so it is a learned activity.

    This dude is just arrogant and delusional.

    Lives in his own little world where John Wall is an absolute superstar.

    Unfortunately for the Rockets, we have to live in reality.

    As soon as you can unload him, you do. So glad this is a shortened season. KP needs to be the pg.

    Wood isn’t close to Harden ( in talent, salary Or accomplishments ) & wasn’t around him long enough to “ learn” anything. Wall & Dipo aren’t franchise guys and Silas & Wood know it. Those two clowns have to go, Dipo first since his contract isn’t ridonkulous like Wall’s is.

    I feel terrible for him, he is a genuinely a good person.

    But I agree, as a leader he needs to be inspiring us in the face of conflict instead.

    The burden is just too great for him.

    And Wall is the most burdensome weight on his shoulders.

    That should have happened 15 straight blowouts ago.

    That opportunity has passed.

    He also needs more help down low.

    A physical longer than 6'6 player would be perfect.

    Wood is far from the problem.

    Wall and Silas drove off Harden.

    They drove off PJ.

    Looks like they are going to do same with Wood.
