@RedNinetyFour Speaking of their media surrogates, it’s shameful. The only reason I have even started posting on twitter is I called out @clutchfans about it (politely) and he immediately banned me after 15 years on the site.

I know the Rockets try to gaslight the Udoka criticisms (through their surrogates in the media) as fans being reactionary or whatever, but I’d be curious to know what they think of the fact that most of the major national personalities have the same observations once they’ve actually watched the team. Are those people being reactionary too?
English
@RedNinetyFour I’m extremely curious to know how long it’s going to take for stone and ownership to publicly sour on Ime. I wonder if it’s already happened privately (I hope so) 1/2
English
@TheRocketsWire What do you know? Rockets wire running a pro Udoka puff peice. Such a shock.
English
Kevin Durant on what stands out about Ime Udoka, entering their first playoff run together in Houston:
“Attention to detail. He understands the game on a deeper level. … He’s created a great culture in the locker room.”
English
@JamesPiercey11 White is a legit scorer. Tari is a good hustle guy and a good defender when he isn’t depressed and moping around. Tari isn’t just a flawed player, he’s a bad offensive player who had a hot stretch from 3, followed by one of the worst stretches of basketball I’ve ever seen.
English
@Captain_Tuttle1 Yeah and Tari does a lot of stuff that White could never ever do as well, you folk are overcorrecting on Tari, his combined steal + offensive rebound %s have been historically unique at times, extra possession monster, flawed player yes but so is White
English
Coby White was traded for a large volume of mediocre assets. We don't have mediocre assets.
It would be fair to criticize Stone for not diversifying his portfolio, but we don't have a comparable package. I am not trading Tari or a first-rounder for Coby White. That's a mistake.

Hornets/Heat wasn’t the game of the year but it was definitely the drunkest game of the year.
FYI — recording the top of my pod after Phx-Port and getting it up asap
English
@RedNinetyFour That was the dumbest shot. And he drilled it. No no no….yeees
English
I’m dead serious when I say there is NO reason the Rockets shouldn’t win this series in 5 or less games.

@lonelycowboy92 Our offense might be one of the worst watches of all time. I would always rewatch big wins throughout the course of a season you know? This year, I would seriously dread watching games sometimes. I’ve never felt that way before.
English
@Captain_Tuttle1 I legit can’t. Our offense is one of the worst watches in the entire league I really can’t take this anymore I think
English
100% - no excuses allowed here.
DaDakota@DaDakota
If the Rockets lose to an injured Lakers, Ime should be fired.
English
@lonelycowboy92 Because it gets Sengun off the team, yes. But he’s gonna get hurt so it’s not like he’d help us. But I’d do it.
English
Sengun for AD who says no

There’s widespread belief that Anthony Davis will request a trade from the Wizards after never playing a single game for them. Davis wants to be on an immediate title-contending roster, which Washington isn’t. Davis was blindsided at the trade deadline being sent to Washington.
English
@BigSargeSportz The only people who ever defend Udoka are the ones who are the mouthpieces for the org.
No offense, good for you for getting to that place in your career where you are at the press conferences and practices etc.
rocketswire, 790, @clutchfans @BenDuBose
it’s shameless.

In the last three seasons, Rockets HC Ime Udoka has not finished below .500, and the first and third seasons were probably some of the best coaching he has done...I know you "Win Every Game" crowd hates that...But...#Rockets #Sarge #RocketsWire

Alperen ve menajerinin ilk yapacağı toplantıda herşey olabilir dedim ve yineliyorum 😉

Udoka gelecek sene Houston'un koçu olmazsa hiç şaşırmam 🔥🤫😉 @BillSimmons Via @GormanChristoph

@RedNinetyFour Yeah, it is usually reductive. But this is a case where so many of the teams problems, wether it’s rotations, Reed, late game execution, offensive staleness, chemistry and attitude.
All of these things point directly to Ime and can’t point anywhere else
English
That’s the thing. I usually hate doing this. “The coach sucks” is about as reductive as it gets. But I have come to really not like this guy.
Tony@Captain_Tuttle1
@RedNinetyFour If I knew this was true (I generally do trust bill simmons), I’d happily wear a LeBron jersey during games. To be clear I’m not usually this guy. I’ve been watching since Yao and Mobley, I’ve never hated a coach like this.
English
Rockets lose in R1 to depleted Lakers team would suck, but if it means Ime leaving

@BiasedHouston Dude every single one of your tweets makes me want to vomit.

LeBron James is the greatest a human being has ever been at playing basketball and is no less than my second favorite player of all time.
This will be the second time in my life where I have to root for his failure, the first time being Rockets/Lakers in the bubble.
English
@RedNinetyFour I have to ask you, if losing this series meant shit canning Udoka……idk man.
English
What amazing luck to draw a beaten down Lakers team. It would be a pretty massive failure for the Rockets to lose this series. So I’m mentally preparing myself for that to happen. I’d say Rockets in 6.
English
Well…. Jokic is done for the game. It’s looking like the Nuggets Rockets in the first round.
Bradeaux@BradeauxNBA
The Lakers are frying the Jazz. Houston’s matchup is most likely going to depend on the outcome of the Nuggets Spurs game.
