    Boozer was out, traditional centers in Garnett, Bynum/Gasol, Thunder, Knicks, and he almost choked against the Nuggets.

    Adelman shouldn't have been hired in the first. His coaching philosophy doesn't suit this team. Please get rid of him ASAP.

    Well who put the players in that are missing the layups and dunks? :rolleyes: Our bench is one of the deepest in the NBA, yet Rick Adelman refuses to use them preferring to stick with Tmac Ron and Rafer Alston even if they're chucking brick after brick. Rick Adelman is just as much of our problem as Tmac Artest and Rafer Alston, and the sooner we get rid of him and find a better coach (i.e. JVG) the better.

    why would any team give us something for Ron? They would have to sign him and since they know we do not want to sign him they will take that as a cue to not sign him.

    We can get nothing of value for Ron. Some team would probably dump a crappy salary on us for him though. since his contract is expiring.

    No, blame the coach for the crap defense that the team is playing. Not to mention that if it was such an "easy fix" (which I don't believe it is) - you are also blaming the coach as you think it is a coaching decision that is the problem.

    Adelman's free wheeling style was never a good fit for McGrady - it seems like we had a coach that was better at controlling him and making the team play defense...what was his name again?

    That is the job of the coach. If he sees the team is playing better without TMac, he should have the balls to send TMac to the bench.
    The problem with Adelman is that he does not have the respect from the team anymore.
