    No she’s not and even if so, Eason with the ball in his hands is not a recipe for success.

    By her a cake and tell her to put it on her mouth. But Silas was the worst I've seen in a Rockets head coach.

    Be proud of your sons but these helicopter parents…

    Kenyon Martin Jr.’s dad (at least he played in the NBA)
    Tari’s mom
    KPJ’s uncle

    “Give my son the rock”
    “My son deserves to start/play big minutes”
    “My son is better than ______”

    “We” love Tari’s mom but hated when Kenyon Sr. was spouting off about his son and the Rockets organization.

    he would be needing more time in training/developing his skills under Udoka's staff

    meaning more time being suppressed as well

    I really enjoy her tweets, but I don't agree with this one at all.

    That being said, I think Tari has first or second all defense potential while being able to knock down the three. Tari will become that guy every single championship team wants, which to me, is more valuable than him having a little more to his bag.

    Anyways, our offense is about to morph into a team concept where the ball has life and the players have movement. I am looking forward to seeing Tari's value shine in Ime's system.

    Not gonna lie, that Draymond clip is not that impressive. I mean sure, he's a 6 foot 6 guy crossing over like that, it's neat since super tall people are usually clumsy. But I was expecting to see clips of him saucing up the defense. I hope Eason's mom was joking thinking that Draymond could've ended up like Luka Doncic if his coach didn't "suppress" him lol.

    As for Tari, I think she should worry about lays ups and tunnel vision first before ISO plays.

    The whole team was suppressed by some of the worst "coaching" in league history. Silas truly was terrible.

    Respectfully, mama needs to shut her mouth. These parents aren’t helping their kids. And while they’re certainly entitled to their opinions and unwavering support of their children, it does not help their kids’ professionally in the slightest.

    This one is a surprise because Eason's mom has definitely been one of the more honest helicopter parents. Eason shouldn't be handling the rock at all and with KPJ, FVV, Amen, Green, Sengun, Eason should be primarily a guy finishing plays and not starting them.

    I love her passion. By the way, she had monster stat lines herself when she was younger.

    Also, look at that baby tweet she made :eek:. Some big boys she had to get out...

    Was that Silas who surpressed Tari from making layups and dunks last season?

    Hell yeah it was, Silas was Mutombo last year

    Yeah, yeah, yeah Tari was suppressed and Jabari was suppressed,
    and Jalen has been suppressed and KPj has been suppressed.....
    All of us fans have been suppressed.

    The line forms behind us. It's called "Tanking". The opposite of trying to win

    Difference is Tari's momma wasn't a former #1 overall pick. She doesn't hold the same influence Martin Sr. does. Just look at the way everyone held a shield up for KJ so that he wouldn't have to endure criticism for not playing defense or being a sub par shooter the way every other Rockets player did.


    Eason suppressed? Not a revelation. Dude was Taz on defense and hit a decent amount of his 3s. If he stops clanging the hell outta those layups he's going to be an absolute monster. He was far from the only one suffering under Silas' laissez faire coaching and KPJ's honcho-ing.

    I don’t know. I realize that this is going to draw the ire of the board but her whole online persona thing seems a bit much to me. I don’t like the parents that do this with their kids fame.

    And I haven’t seen a ton leads me to believe that Tari should have the ball much. Not right now at least.

    Pffft it wasn't even suppressed. It was just silas being incompetent, but folks like to spin it that Silas was tanking on purpose.

    Silas was giving heavy mins to the older players/vet and was still getting railed
