The R.E.S.P.E.C.T is gone!

I do not care about how things get done as long as they are getting it done.

Fans should stick to that.

If those new ideas stick and are successful, then so be it.

 

Frank Vogel and Nick Nurse are definitely disciplinarians. They are not typically screamers but they both had very definitive boundaries that players cannot cross and both have confronted players and hold them accountable.

Are they tyrants? Of course not.... and they are not going to endlessly ride you like Popovich does, but they still have clear expectations of their players and will punish players that don't follow the rules.

Is Silas a pushover? I don't know, I have never heard anyone around the league call him a pushover.... he is one of the most well liked people in the game, but I know a lot of people question whether he will be a successful head coach. My observation is that he isn't someone that likes conflict, and that can be a problem when you have players that seek out conflict.

 

I think it would be a mistake to let Silas go at this point or even at the end of the season without seeing how this plays out first. KPJ and Wood are issues but guys like Tate, KMJ, JC, Sengun and Green have shown progress and seem to be far more professional despite their age.

 

Lucas's "good cop - bad cop" revelation doesn't help his image at all.
My first impression of Silas was one of sb that shunned confrontation.
It hasn't changed.

 

Mark Jackson is blackballed from the league for non-coaching related stuff

That said. . . I think it is Sam Cassell time

Haha, yeah I forgot about that! Although, not sure if it is the League as a whole or just San Francisco-area.

 

As good as he may or may not be
I don't think anyone wants the baggage

Why bother when you can probably get the same without the baggage

you fail to realize that the coaches boss - the team owner and GM both want to tank this year …coach only follows the rules and try and still establish the foundation of his system

 

agree, absolutely. Why give fuel to militant woke-ist slander of the city? Houston is diverse and tolerant, a guy with some questionable views is not a good fit.

 

if/whenever a new coach, ET has my vote, as well!

 

wat mark jexon did?

 

don't remember details, but Igoudala said in an interview that he was blackballed because of some homophobic stuff against GSW employee... Might have been minor, but San Francisco, you know...

 

Actually I don't give a damn what Silas says in public. Most coach talks in the press after a loss are standard "We've got to ________ better, blah blah blah."

This blowup seems to indicate that the defensive problem has been simmering in the locker room and likely in practices for some time. The 47-point quarter was the last straw that caused the explosion.

 

Yea. Plus being an UBER CHRISTIAN
One that must expressed it everyday in every way
and
They said he was basically pushing on everyone like he was a missionary

I cannot say yea or nay to any of it . .. but I can say that . .. all things being equal . .. get a coach without baggage

We'll see what happens moving forward.
