Stephen Silas ‘broke down in tears’ after a game earlier this year because he felt he couldn't connect with his team, per @WindhorstESPN

Where the hell you get this from? The stats are contradicting itself. It says only 3 number one picks since 1985 have gone on to win championships and then right below lists how AD and Kyrie also were #1 picks that won championships. As well as David Robinson and Tim Duncan.

Also the Warriors and Bucks have won the draft lottery and both have won championships. It should've said has won a championship with the player drafted #1. Maybe this article makes since in the context of the whole article but without the context surrounding the rest it makes no sense.

Just was a quick google search, didn't spend as much time filtering the data but the query was: how many #1 picks have won NBA championships.
Did something similar for top 5 picks to have won championships. I think that number was legit, it's somewhere around 15/110 since 2000.

It looks like it missed Hakeem going #1 and winning with the Rockets.

Nonetheless, those are still crazy stats.
I think that's less than 20% of #1 picks have won a championship going back to 1985, so 80%+ will come up short.
Only 5 players picked in the top 5 have won since 2008 (from two championships with LeBron).

Pretty wild and really goes to show only 1 team can win it each year.

Get Ime in there and see if these kids is worth anything.

 

[T.he I.nformant]

He was crying during press conferences even before this most recent incident and displayed in over his head tendencies for years now.

He’s done it before and I remember debating with posters then who insisted it was no big deal and that he wasn’t in over his head.

He wanted no part of that job once Harden got moved.

At least he apologized. But the damage has been done. Lynch mob came out for the youngin JG smh

@Thavoiceofthevoiceless is your recollection from 2021 too?

Should be suspended…that would make journalists more careful before posting. Sadly their words hold more weight than they should

He's a product of nepotism.

He got his first assistant and head coaching jobs due to his father in Charlotte.

Pause. Lol.

Thought you meant Windhorst.

 

[wire28]

They have Jalen green and kpj who are more concerned about clout chasing than basketball. I’d be sad too knowing these goofies was fukkin my money up

Edit: so windhorst lied. Wild that journalists can make shyt up and then “my bad y’all” it away

 

[Buckeye Fever]

I broke down and cried when I realized AD and Bron are still under contract for 2 more years

But LeBron broke the all time scoring record in a Lakers jersey. Isn't that awesome????!!!!!

 

[Marc Spector]

i knew Silas was screwed when Jalen Green answered "im a bucket" to what he learned from his rookie season in which he (mostly) was putting up empty numbers on bad efficiency, only getting it together in the months of March and April. I dont think Green is a bad kid but its clear hes a product of "bag twitter" culture.

@Flight they trying to say it’s Jalen’s fault

This is clearly what coaching Kevin Porter Jr does to a man.

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

@Thavoiceofthevoiceless is your recollection from 2021 too?

I’ve already acknowledged the correction in an earlier comment. I still do think he’s in over his head and should be fired as he seems checked out based on other press conference comments.

 

[Guess Who]

KPJ is bad for the culture. Been saying that for two years. They HAVE to move him if they want this thing to work.

 

[Patrick Kane]

Look at this fat fukk



shyt like this could ruin the man’s coaching career and he gets an apology? This cac needs to have the pants sued off him
