This year, to be frank, has been a horrible year for the Houston Rockets and their fans. Going all the way back to the offseason (which feels like years ago), the Rockets have traded away superstars, saw former general manager Daryl Morey leave to spend time with his family (for like a week), and have undergone a lot of roster turnover.

So much turnover that they have barely had enough players to actually take the court.

Rockets coach Stephen Silas has endured one of the worst situations any first-time head coach has had to deal with in any sport.
