Ime Udoka: Youth is not an excuse

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

This is not true at all, and if it was, they would not have had the turnaround they’ve had since he’s been here.

He's proven he's a good motivator and nothing more. He can't coach offense for a damn thing. He either needs to adapt and look and different ways to approach that end of the floor in the offseason or get in someone that knows how to.

Rockets have a whole lot of talent that isn't being used properly.

Jabari only having 4 shots in 20+ minutes is inexcusable, especially when you had a much less talented Quinten Post on the other team who had 11 shots in the same amount of minutes.

I don't know how TheColi does it, but they jump out the window for all the wrong players and coaches.

Ya'll got fooled by all that rah-rah shyt he was doing, thinking he was actually coaching shyt, all the while turning y'all noses up at Mazzulla, who's carving out his own legacy in Boston, all because y'all don't like the way he looks/acts. Hoops might as well be a beauty pageant to some of y'all because y'all don't really judge coaches nor players on the basis of their actual ability.

Tell us more, Aubrey

The fukking audacity and lack of self awareness

And some of ya hang onto every word this self hating weirdo spews

Ain't got shyt to say now huh, fakkit. Ain't no poppin your p*ssy in every thread trying to get my attention over this non-coaching ass huffer and puffer.

Besides the fact that they don’t have a KD/Steph/Giannis-level player, there’s team almost totally lacks the ability to shoot, which is why defense and physicality is their identity. THAT’s why their offense is poor, not cause they’re not being coached. I watched Stephen Silas, JBB pre-Cavs, and Kevin McHale here, I’m pretty sure I know what bad coaching looks like, whether you have the capable offensive players or not.

You don't need a KD, Steph, Giannis etc level player to run an offense.

I ain't trying to hear this shyt when GS had to force Buddy Hield into being the #2 option in Game 3 (with Jimmy being out), and the Rockets still couldn't generate more offense than them. I ain't trying to hear this shyt when Houston's biggest strength (their frontcourt) is the Warriors' biggest weakness, yet Ime can't even devise a gameplan that exposes that unfathomable advantage.

Houston have the 4 best bigs in this series, meanwhile, the Warriors frontcourt is essentially a 35-year-old Draymond (the corpse of Looney, a second round rookie and TJD wouldn't even crack the Rockets' rotation).

In fact, let's take it a step further - the Rockets have 5-6 players taller than Draymond, yet the only way they've been able to capatilize on this is grabbing more rebounds. They haven't forced the Warriors into switches, they haven't used actions to get their bigs rolling to the rim, they haven't used actions to get the likes of Jabari open shots. They haven't done a damn thing to expose arguably the worst frontcourt rotation in the playoffs.

They've got 5 lottery picks on their squad, so I ain't trying to hear it.

Not only does Ime draw up a Sengun ISO, but he forces the ball into Sengun's hands above the arc. Not a play where the ball is thrown down to him in the post where he can establish proper position, but makes him have to dribble down the lane, to which Dray preempts his movements, and bodies him up a whole step further out than where he would ideally like to be (which is why the shot fell short).

And this is all after the fact that once Dray checked back in midway through the 4th, he couldn't get shyt off against him.

Yet somehow Ime thought that it was the best decision to go to him after he'd gone cold and Dray had his measure.

its amazin he hasn't been able to work out a scheme to work around GSW defense this whole series , on the offensive end - there is literally nothing bein run differently , nothing in place scheme wise to help this team get some offense goin , any adjustment snothin

i was a big fan of ime before this but this has me left me confused

he has obviously been bailed out by elite scorers like jaylen , tatum , etc in the past 2 make up for his lack of creativity on that end of the court

i imagine how he wanted jalen green 2 make it up on the fly as well

Ime needs to go out and get an assistant purely for the offense, cause

How yall blame the coach when the best player had 8 points

This half-Jew is twerking because the Rockets are missing FT's- shyt that has nothing to do with coaching

But then again, he's defending the white coach for playing a 40-year the entire second half

That would be a great idea. Ironically, he can get D'Antoni as his assistant coach, or someone similar

I actually mentioned this when he was on the Celtics. He is an elite defensive coach, the Celtics defense was all time elite defensive team under Ime, and never reached those heights currently under Joe Mazzulla. Ime just needs an assistant to focus completely on offense

Somehow Ime is "Just a motivator". But JJ Reddikk is a Genius

Your c00n ass doesn't know the first thing about coaching. You treat it to cosplay for your keyboard militant agendas.
