Podcast: Rockets’ losing streak takeaways and John Wall interview reaction

What does John Wall’s explosive interview mean for Stephen Silas and Rafael Stone? Today’s @TheLagerLine explores the fallout, along with key takeaways from the losing streak. #Rockets

After Wednesday’s loss to Charlotte, the Houston Rockets own the NBA’s longest losing streak (12 games) of the 2022-23 season and have  lost 17 of their last 18 games, overall.

Thursday’s episode of “The Lager Line” (sponsored by Clutch City Lager of Karbach Brewing) explores what that dubious distinction means in the context of Houston’s rebuild.

Hosted by Ben DuBose and Paulo Alves, discussion topics include:

  • Whether Alperen Sengun’s recent performances have placed him on the verge of a featured role on offense;
  • Concerning regression shown by Jalen Green, particularly with defensive effort and offensive playing style;
  • Reaction to John Wall’s harsh criticisms of the organization, and why some were missing important context;
  • What the implications of Wall’s comments could be for head coach Stephen Silas and general manager Rafael Stone.

Thursday’s full podcast can be listened to below. Each episode of the show is also available via flagship radio station SportsTalk 790, as well as to all major podcast distributors under “The Lager Line.”
