    If we hire Mike Brown I might seriously consider turning in my fan card.

    And I never thought I would say that.

    Rockets fans deserve an explanation from both Morey and LA in the form of a press conference. This is riduculous. Does the performance post trade deadline not count for anything?

    Please god not Mike Brown.

    I did not understand that they traded Adelman's best 4th quarter player for a soft Fool's Gold Martin either.

    This is life.

    I'm losing faith in the front office so fast I'm already considering jumping on the PDX bandwagon. Maybe the franchise suffers repeated bad fortune but they have great fans and a front office that is committed to doing everything they can to put a quality product on the floor.

    Stan Van Gundy better be handcuffed to Dwight Howard or else.

    Yeah. I'm sure Landry would put up 30 every other night.

    Get over it.

    Quite honestly... I feel sick about this. I can't even read the comments on it.

    Why would Dwight follow SVG when he's supposedly thinking about leaving Stan & the Magic?

    what's so upset??? bulls didn't get a big name coach to guide them to the top seed in the east. when we let jvg go we should retain tt.

    i have no problem on letting ra walk away but hiring mike brown??? you've got kidding me unless rox try to get #1 pick next year. he isn't good at all. he has no coaching capability except riding lebron. he can't bring out most out of his other players. he doesn't have any x/o except calling timeout to let lebron get a break.

    this is ridiculous. I know Adelman made many questionable coaching decision but I really don't know if any other coach could have done more with this team. Morey seems to be lookin for young players so an old coach isn't going to want to come here but missing a third playoff straight with a young coach doesn't seem to be a good route either? I think that for the immediate future, this is a lose-lose situation. For you tankers out there, do you really think scola, lowry, or hayes would go for it? Asking them to tank is basically asking them for trouble. again, lose-lose.

    I disapprove of this move, big time.

    RA plays rookies who deserve it, and he has done so every season he was here.

    What scares me most is we can't do any better than what RA has done for us, it's all downhill from now.

    If Mike Brown coaches us... ****.

    I hope this is Les' move and not Morey's.

    Kind of how I feel. That isn't just a step backwards, it's a giant running leap backwards while hitting every step with your face on the way down.
