    Well, puts the kibosh on those conspiracy theories as to why he missed practice yesterday, at least.

    Too many outside distractions lately. I hope we turn things around to a positive vibe soon.

    Wow, some personal drama indeed. I guess he has better things to worry about than the situation with T-Mac...

    I was thinking that same thing. It sounds like David Adelman is pretty guilty but hiring a PI to get your son's highschool coach fired just seems crazy to me. If you think your kid is getting such a raw deal why not just transfer to another school?

    Next theory.

    T-mac is the reason Adelman's son got the DWI.

    No, Coach Adelman defending his son in a DWI case is not a joke. Why would you think it is?

    Does one of TMac's parents know the name of a good PI in Houston?

    I'd rather not know about Rick Adelman's personal life.
    There is a clear line b/w personal space and professional work and we shouldn't cross it.

    I guess it's good that this is posted, but nothing about this needs discussing.

    Fans talk about the players personal lives all the time. Coaches are no different. Now, if you mean that we should leave his family out of it, I agree.

    or send your kid to basketball camp instead of living out delusions of grandeur through your kids.

    alright, so maybe we were all overreacting yesterday. Although the tweet from Clutch yesterday remains the same..so I'm just confused now. Does the coach and the organization really have beef with T-mac or are they keeping him off the court in a sincere effort to make sure he's 100% healthy before he plays? I'm leaning towards the latter because I think the organization's logic is they don't want a potential repeat of last year where T-mac was playing every other game and disrupting team chemistry.
