I noticed that for the past 2 games, Coach A has been on a short rotation. Correct me if I am wrong but didn't we do well when Coach A continously sends waves of fresh legs on the court? He did decrease TMacs minutes which is a good sign. But where is Head and Novak when you wanted to put points in on the board?

He did not have enough motivation to win after a 20+ wining games.

After losing two games, I am ready to declare RA as a bad coach and that I want JVG back.

Luther was a bad matchup against a larger 2 guard. Novak is a defensive liability, but maybe he should have played earlier in the fourth. Landry is hurt and Brooks is too small to guard Paul.

the rebounding situation would've been ugly if novak got on the floor.

Luther head really does suck......he can hit an open three........but could never get a shot over sombody.......he pulls the ball back to his shoulder blade to shoot it......is never looking to pass and can finish around the rim......


I like aaron brooks because he is fast..........if we continue to lose.........not saying we will just been 2 games.........Try to start him.......tell him to pass alot and make oppsing pgs chase him......

I like novak.....but do we need more 3 kackers out there.....tracy does that enough for everybody and the couzin.....rafer hits 8 and swears hes jason kapono.........


my starting 5.......

1.Aaron Brooks
2.Tracy Mcgrady
3.Shane Battier
4.Landry
5.Deke Mutumbo

Backups...
1. Rafer....(but with limited mins he will want to shoot more threes while he on the court)
2.Bring in novak (cant nobody else score)
3. Mike Harris (I like him)
4.Scola.....Rotate with him and landy alot
5.Loren Woods

Agreed... why isn't he playing Yao and Landry more?


I'm sorry for being snarky and I know this doesn't really advance the discussion much, but doesn't your question kind of answer itself?

Agreed, we cannot afford to put sir brick-a-lot out there for extended minutes.

it doesn't matter how good a match up is, it's worthless when the players are too exhausted to play. which is why Luther head, Harris and Novak should have played far more minutes. a bad matchup who is fresh is far more effective than a good matchup that is to exhausted to be of any use.

you have to take the fatigue factor into consideration. which is why Adelman is an idiot because he totally ignores it. he keeps running the players into the ground while other teams constantly rotate theirs. that is a great strategy for burning out your players and losing games. not to mention a sure way of causing INJURY to your starters.

Adelman = an idiot.

Why doesn't Adelman make any subs in the 3rd quarter? Adelmans rotation is killing the Rockets at the end of the games

the rotation will be strong again when landry comes back, its too much to ask for us to take on the west powers with deke and chuck in the mix, at some point you gotta have scolandry in there
