Head coaches hired and fired in the Les era: Rudy T -- fired JVG -- hired, fired Adelman -- hired, fired McHale/Bickerstaff -- hired, fired D'antoni -- hired Technically, only McHale was actually fire. But all the other coaches were let go by Les.
Check out the analysis of the Rockets picking Cassell, LOL Winston Garland, he reminds them of Sedale Threet? His part in Clutch City: He may have entered training camp as the No. 24 pick in the 1993 Draft, but the talkative, irrepressible Cassell never once acted like or thought of himself as a rookie. Oozing with confidence, he made it into coach Rudy Tomja-novich's rotation early and by the second half of the 1993-94 season was the closer at point guard. "The Fresh Prince of Clutch City" was fearless when games got late. He calmly stood at the free throw line in the last minute of Game 3 of The 1994 Finals at Madison Square Garden and knocked down a pair of shots to clinch a critical Rockets win.
Lol, wtf? There are some straight up weirdos on this forum. I wonder how these people are in real life.
I don't think the point was to give Les credit for acquiring Olajuwon. But he definitely signed the man's paychecks for quite a while. As far as I'm concerned, if Les paid your salary then you qualify. This isn't about a general manager where it's credit they get for the moves they made. C'mon, man. It's like if Lebron retired and people wanted to make an "All Lebron's Team Mates Team" and I want to add Udonis Haslem and you're like "No! Udonis Haslem was in Miami before Lebron got there! Dwyane Wade deserves the credit!" Udonis Haslem was still Lebron's teammate. Hakeem was still Les's employee. All of Les's former employees should be fair game.
So the new owner gets credit for Harden and Chris Paul right? Should I give Les credit for Bill Worrell and Calvin Murphy?

Dude. All LOFs hate real Rockets fans. It's pretty simple. Look at his dumb posts, he had a post saying Barkley got money from Reebok, just crap out of his but, no facts. The only people that dumb are LOFs.
