    - Lakers switched more and they couldn’t create any advantage

    - Hoping Fred and Adams come back healthy next season

    - Need to address the lack of shooting and lack of backup PG, will discuss with Stone ASAP

    - Want to have a little bit more mix instead of some duplicates

    - Both coaches and players are equally to blame for stagnant offense

    They couldn't create any advantage? What does this dumbass think his job is as coach? He needs to be fired if we're serious about building a contender

    I don’t like the certainty with which he says that Rafel and him will get in a room and make some roster decisions. I don’t want either of them making roster decisions at this point. We need to overhaul the front office and the coaching. And we need to make big investments into our player development system.

    I expect a formal presser, no way those 2 fruits can get away with a postseason like this.

    Fans should demand Tilly's face.

    Barely cracking 70 and now saying no duplicate players, well you were a GM so guess no accountability still.

    lol wat? They had every opportunity to address the PG position in the offseason and deadline and both ignored it, same with more shooting.

    Maybe you can't build your team with gritty hustle wings and you need guys who can put the ball in the basket?

    The discussion should be:
    Ime: "Did we F up..."
    Stone: "Yep, we F'd up big time..."

    Unpopular opinion, but the Rockets should sell high and get rid of Amen. He needs to be the primary ball handler to be effective, but he’s shown that he’s not PG material. You can’t build around him, but at the same time, he’s not a good off-ball player. I don’t want to give a big contract to an Andre Roberson-esque player.

    The way this year was wasted just shows the pressure to win the championship is not serious enough in this organization. Not blaming Ime but this is a serious issue. Houston sports has a lot of great/good talented players but it's just too much of a getting money and hoes culture versus we gotta win championships or get to the finals and get money and hoes culture...

    He has a positive net plus/minus with every other rotation player on the team.

    hot take, nobody wants to admit. But the Cheerleaders gotta go. None of them have an onlyfans account.

    So, you think we can be a contender with Ime?
    I think he's incompetent AND toxic. No accountability whatsoever ...
    He was okay for the last phase, but beyond that...

    I'm curious. What do you like about him?

    Well first, let's look at his players.

    -Tari Eason. A 24 year old who could barely play back to backs, a selfish player who thinks he is a star because his mama says so and whose mama is on twitter trashing other players.

    - Sengun.....Udoka never seriously liked him. Guy is also selfish, whines ALOT on the court and plays zero defense. Multiple times this year other players were yelling at him on the court for his lack of defense.

    - Jabari....Showed real promise

    - Amen...Can't shoot yet but again I am keeping him


    This team has no real SG or PG. No serious backup C. Both Capella and Sengun were getting worked by Ayton.

    You need to stop worrying about Ime, you need to be more convincing in showing people you aren’t a ****ing idiot.

    hint: it’s not going well for you
