    The mavericks disagree. He got nothing but rave reviews working with the young players at Golden State.

    Super Mario and The Little general have a long standing relationship. It is (regretably) a natural landing place for Elie.

    Why can't the Rockets hire him as an assistant coach?

    So did the Rockets decline to hire him, or did he decline to come?

    I'm not surprised. He and Avery Johnson are the best of friends. Back in 2005 during the playoffs, he predicted the Mavericks to beat the Rockets on Sports Sunday. Why? Because his friend was the coach.
