    Definitely a manipulative bastard, but he has made the most of little he had to work with. He made the most of the Harden trade.

  7. Daniel Banda

    He lost me talking about how great the culture is in the organization. Obviously Iā€™m on the outside but you can see dysfunction.

    Iā€™m a Rockets fan . Um , I canā€™t wait to see who the next coach is going to me . Um , I canā€™t the wait for the draft and hoping it all pays off in the end . Um , I like when Rafael Stone said ā€œ Um , we now have lot of cap space and we are going to spend on veterans .ā€

    interesting not a single mention of KPJ… clearly a vet PG is something that the teams looking for

    Coach Silas was dealt a bad hand, but he also did nothing with it. A good coach, a championship caliber coach, would've gotten good production and growth from these players. That didn't happen. Hope he gets another shot somewhere else.

    Why the fck egeryone talking about how good he is as a human bla bla bla go and date him why the fck do you talk his personality . You americans are crazy. Dont be emotional in sport , jobs and vs

    Sounds like mark Jackson is not out of the question …. Please hire Mark he is the one we need he can be the face of the franchise he will draw stars to come people will respect us again

    Thanks Jackson. I don't like these questions and answer sessions especially with people who say a lot but nothing material. I do like how you ask the real questions fans want to know. Most of the media, especially in Houston is way too soft on the organization because they dont want to lose the credentials…keep up the good work…

    Bro should have been fired. Boy can not see talent in the top beside getting lucky with sengun and eason he has missed out on Mobley Ivey Scottie even mathurin

    Iā€™m pretty sure that when GMs interview with a team, theyā€™re asked about their vision for the team, and this guy doesnā€™t have one? Thatā€™s troubling.
    A rebuild based on figuring things out rather than a vision or formula seems like a horrible way to rebuild a team.

  28. AMarshall

    I donā€™t agree with everything he does/says but itā€™s rare to see someone in his position speak so candidly. I respect it.

  29. X Davis

    Basically what I'm getting out of this as far as the draft if they can't get the number one pick and get Victor they're basically going to trade it if they can get a star player

  30. Vick Mcfadden

    Heā€™s lying saying this team has best culture heā€™s ever been apart of . If so they wouldnā€™t had fired Silas
