    I mean it is James Harden all over again against the Lakers and James Harden requesting a trade. Stephen Silas couldn't Coach, players were washed up.

    Washed up DeMarcus Cousins and John Wall were pi**ed off at James Harden.

    It's getting harder to get up to watch this team play like last game. I hope for redemption on this next one. Ime is just incapable of taking this team to another level, and the players seem to sense it by their play and body language. Something needs to drastically change in the offseason. Let us not beat around the bush and admit that the basic issue is Ime's lack of competence as a head coach. FVV will not change this situation when he comes back, and I don't believe more changes in the lineup will make any difference so long as the coach remains. Sadly, it is what it is.

    HAHAHAHAHAHA Rockets losing to the Lakers Round 2.

    Is it possible to lose out and go for the #1 draft pick still? Asking for myself

    Won’t be staying up for this one. Expect the same result. Coaches are too stubborn for adjustments

    What else do you expect when you have a stupid coach like Ime?

    No adjustment, no game plan.

    Nothing except rebounding and Iso ball.

    Sengun is playing? That means Ime is starting his usual preferred five of Alpi, Jabari, Tari, Amen, and KD instead of making any adjustments. Which means another loss.
