Ime is about to unlock everyone. KPJ can be a sniper, Jabari can be a sniper, Jalen will be a slashing monster and Josh Christopher on top of the other offense Ime runs for Jalen. We only need a shooter or 2 more and the elevation of all our young player. We didnt need Wembyanma
They need to ask him about jalen green i don't think he's our best player
Hey John granoto or whatever your name is, when you have the team owner publically intoxcated screaming 'PRAY FOR VICTOR' and the GM meddling in the Head Coach practices and inteferring with Silas direction for the team, then of course the product on the court will be bad. The owner and gm was tanking and they made sure to see it through. Only a fool would criticize poor Silas. Silas deserves to go win a chip with a team who actually cares about winning.
Im ready to watch the Udoka Rockets!
Im ready to watch the Udoka Rockets!
They can get Edey to back up Sengun. Even play a high-low game with him.
Udoka rubbin his hands thinkin about the strip joints in Houston lol
These guy are dumb
Yo, most rocket fans are not 'let KPJ cook' check yourself
I was scared for a while that Udoka won’t recognize the gems he has in his squad, especially with Sengun.. I’m really relieved that Udoka sees his talent and I hope his experience will make Sengun even a better player
The Rockets, much like the Texans, with new management and a sudden need for a switch in strategy (rebuild instead of chasing championships,) did well in hiring coaches that would give them the best chance to fail and thus acquire the best possible draft picks. Both franchises did well with saying all the right things to shape a certain narrative about the process. The next step in the process was to hire the true coach of the future to put it all together and add to it. Both franchises got a little lucky maybe. They both seem to have gotten the right leader at the right time.
With Harden coming bck, we need a rim running big man next to him.
Bring Al-P off the bench since he slows the offense down, plus, he's not a Harden' type big man.
Yeah either Silas was ordered to tank, or he is one of the worst coaches ever. You win 20 games with a starting lineup that has 4 first rounders, you’ve got 2 or 3 first rounders coming off the bench. Doesn’t make sense.
Some of the players on the roster now seem so, from a skillset and work ethic level, unknown and underdeveloped in just finding out what their ceiling could be actually be.
I feel like these dudes be talking out they ass. If you a first time coach of a team who's deliberately losing no way will you just be able to go into the front office and be confrontational and not lose your job. Not to mention you'd burn all your bridges. If Silas really wanted to prove a point he should've resigned
We need Zach Edey
This is very encouraging. I hope Tilman and Stone are patient for at least one more year. The young guys are the way.
As for Sengun being a decent defender, the dude showed a lot of progress from the beginning of the season to the end.
Considering he's only played in an American league for two years and…. HE'S 20 YEARS OLD, I think he'll get there.
