So we actually went for him? Interesting. I remember somebody here saying that Rashard "hates the rockets" and wouldn't even pick them if they wanted him. Any truth to that?
Mchale seems like an awesome guy. Would be a blast to grab a beer and listen to his celtics stories. Doesn't mean a darn thing for coaching though
McHale is a figure head. A lot of players want to play for him. The Rockets need to hire a strong assistant coach to 'coach'. When JVG was coach here, there were rumors that it was Tibs that was really the coach. Rockets need someone like this. I don't think Finch is the answer.
The Mavs lost some very important and underrated players that contributed to their success. They've lost 2 guys who shot over 40% from the 3 point line in Calderon and Carter. They've lost Blair and Dalembert and will also probably lose Marion. Unless Parsons has another gear that we haven't seen that will allow him to live up to his 15 million dollar contract, I would say that it could be a wash at best. Calderon, Carter, Blair, and Dalembert all played very well in the playoffs and shot lights out. Blair and Dalembert were monsters on the glass too.
From what I know...Morey wanted to tear McHale's head off towards the end of the season because of the lack of D...and McHale kept putting blame on the fact that we lost Sampson. Im not at all an insider, but I do hang out with an ex-Rocket from time to time and I hear stories bc the ex player golfs with some current coaches on the staff.
I agree. McHale isn't going anywhere so we need to find a badass assistant coach that can guide him in the right direction. He sucks at in game situations. It was highlighted in the playoffs for everyone to see.
info from cyberex today: - bev is going to germany possibly Does this make him trade fodder? Is he damaged good discussion. - the other piece of news is that cyberex thinks mchale is probably not the right guy and doesnt think he should still be the coach. So the question for cyberex on that is how long a rope does mchale have? Also why does it matter if morey and mchale are tied at the hip..isn't it alexanders decision too? Seems like cyberex is indicating that morey rules the roost over there. hey sorry cyberex.. Little touchy over here about hearing about the mavericks and any news regarding them. I won't tell you why.
i've seen an interview where barkley discussed how players don't like playing in their hometowns because they get constantly hit by friends and relatives for money and tickets.
No reason to flame somebody that had little credibility to begin with. If he comes through, I'll gladly eat crow, but there was no reason to buy into it in the first place.
Being a cool guy is the last thing a coach should do. The only guy call out on your star player is minimum paid one, its interesting
Hey Cyber, any news on the Mike Brown hiring status? I think his addition could do more to improve this team than a splashy acquisition right now
