Just wow…wholesome, touching and very telling moment. We’re building a family here! Please, please keep this thread in line with this. Let’s be kind and caring.
Must have been a two part question about Tilman "What does it mean to have such a great owner that's put the right players around you so you don't break your dad's losing record? and on KPJ's comments earlier this franchise, say this like you're a part of this franchise you're a part of the reas that he is in the position that he's in right now the leadership role that he's in right now what does it mean right now to you?"
Stephen Silas seems to genuinely be one of the nicest dudes in the NBA. That’s why I want him to succeed with the Rockets, we need more people like him out there. Even though I’ve doubted him at times, I’ve always rooted for him and will continue to do so
He's a smart coach and is highly respected around the league. Our players just gotta mature, grow and start to close out games.
Ever since @Nook said Silas took credit for Jalen's improvement, I'm skeptical about his authenticity haha I'm sure he had at least a lot to do with KPJ though. Great job by Rockets staff. It's so common for people to want to waive or trade a player just because they haven't learned how to self-motivate yet and that scares coaches who are not good at that. The Rockets rolled up their sleeves and actually did their player development job without ignoring mental well-being and development. We will likely get an excellent asset out of it. If not, the risk is minor and the timing (rebuilding window) is perfect.
didnt watch dont care.... coach that rewards players by playing them less minutes and playing your best player 6 minutes a night, pulling him out of the game to avoid beating ruling champs...denying his rook ROY honors....ACTION SPEAKS LOUDER
Why does Silas get so emotional for only KPJ? I still remember when Silas ran and hugged KPJ after he hit a last second shot. KPJ the son Silas never had confirmed. Anyway nice moment.
I got a bit emotional too. This team is a family. Give them time to grow together and they'll be something special.
I really feel this is our first real team since the famous airplane photo with Harden CP Ariza PJ EG and others
But if we get winning boy scouts, we'll be the media darlings of the league ..and learn niche survival skills
Seems like the genuinely nicest person in the league, really hope this team and him continue to grow and he'll be rewarded for his patience and earnest effort.
Silas had no words. The reporter is being quoted. Silas wording or lack there of shows what? He couldn’t speak when spoken to in an interview.
