Going after Kenny Beecham is a wild move.
Maybe the most universally beloved guy in sports media. Legit 100% approval rating. And he’s absolutely bigger than Frank Isola in 2026.
I keep seeing “imagine if we had Luke Kennard”
If we had Luke Kennard our head coach Ime Udoka would be playing him behind Jasean Tate and Okogie in our rotation cause of defense
The Rockets nearly set a franchise record for their most consecutive games with 30+ assists at the end of the season and they’ve gone away from all of that.
Right back to iso hoops and trying to force KD to beat a blitz.
I have no explanation for what I am seeing.
Houston sports over the last calender year or so:
- Rockets lose to Warriors in 7
- Astros blow AL West to Mariners
- Cougars blow NCAA Final to Florida
- C.J. Stroud's 2025 playoff run
- Astros pitching/injuries (2026)
- Rockets' poor offense (2026)
I mean..
It’s almost like a lineup of Reed, Amen, Durant, Jabari, and Şengün makes 100% sense.
Of course Houston goes on an immediate run when they throw this unit out there.
I promise it is not that complicated. IT IS NOT THAT COMPLICATED.
Ime Udoka defenders blame injury, the roster and players for not being able to look after the ball and make shots
There’s truth in that
But there’s no doubt that Ime Udoka has been completely out-coached and out-adjusted by JJ Redick in games 1 & 2
