Lifetime learning from father prepared Silas for Rockets job | |
HOUSTON (AP) Growing up with an NBA coach as a father, Stephen Silas started his education into the ins and outs of coaching long before he chose it as a career. When he decided to pursue the profession, it was his father, now-retired Paul Silas who gave him his first job as an assistant with the Charlotte Hornets. Twenty years later, the younger Silas continues to follow in his father's footsteps as he begins his first head coaching job with the Houston Rockets. "The reason I'm here is because of him, the reason I'm prepared for this position is because I've been preparing for this all my life," Silas said Thursday after being introduced in Houston following his hiring Friday.
