    I think Udoka knows that there is not a clear superstar right now in this building.....you could make arguments for few of the young ones.

    If you do not have that, ISO would not be even meaningful.

    You are being forced to run plays for everyone now. (I do not want to talk about Silas)

    Superstar? no.

    But all we need is a guy who can get around his defender, make decent passes and/or continue to the rim.
    I think we might have a couple guys who can do this.

    Of course, just mentioned you do not have that Top 5 ISO guy who could pull it off anyways.

    It is also Pre-season, you can run hundred of plays, time to experiment.

    New coach….better be no experimentation. They need to perfect his system. Expect 20+ tonight from Hutchins.

    Well, you never know, we do not work for them, one time Udoka said he wanted everyone to un-learn the habits from the Silas stint....and that takes time.

    I do not know his plans behind the spotlight, what I meant.

    I can't wait to wildly overreact about whatever happens in this game.

    I'm ready for a ClutchFans meltdown and subsequent "Fire Udoka" thread if Rockets lose.

    Don't care if we win or lose. I just want to see actual strategy being used. If we come in again with no offensive or defensive systems to speak of then nothing's going to change. Hopefully Ime lives up to the hype.

    It's almost like she is 60, right? Shocked she doesn't look exactly the same.
