Bickerstaff lineups, rotations and minutes are horriable

    Maybe he is a bad coach, but maybe it will be wise to at least give credit when it is due in a certain aspect of the game. Possibly do not insult, might be only insulting yourself at the moment.

    I have no idea what JB was thinking last night . You just can't play some of those lineups he ran out there . Why no minutes for KJ and montrezl ? Why so many minutes for jones . Why so many minutes for Brewer and terry . Look I like what terry did for us last year , but he's done . His shooting has regressed and his defense which was already bad is now just awful . You can't play him anymore outside of a few specific situations .

    We lack playmakers so I can understand wanting to give ty and smith minutes and hoping the switch flips on for those guys , but then at least play them with personnel that will keep the defensive intensity up . You can't play ty and terry together . Please don't play jones and Clint or josh together . JB cost us this game because clearly James and Dwight and Trevor and bev were playing well enough for us to win .

    I'm over JB.

    Like... you put the lineup on the floor, though. And rolled with it. What am I missing?

    Its not james or dwight its our supporting cast. Tjones is overrated. Jsmoove is decent. Pat bev is a solid role player. And ariza is a great complement but the rest of the roster is just not good enough. We need to acquire better players this offseason. Hopefully we get barnes or kd. We also need to hire thibs. 100% we need a hardass like him. Harden will play defense like jimmy butler if we did that. And his offense with tht defense is lethal.

    He was definitely sleep at the wheel last night. He went small while the jazz stayed big. He put terry and lawson on the floor together allowing Burke to get free for three 3 point shots in 4th. :confused: . He did a good job calling plays late. But, why does it seems like he's trying to lose on purpose?

    If I was the James harden type star of this team **** would be getting wild in that locker room/coaches office/GM office

    After he said "this team is broken" I'd probably embarrass him during interviews or ESPN until he had to be fired

    JB is the worst Rockets coach in history. His lineups are horrible.

    Why not promote Chris Finch? I do not know if this team has anything to lose by not promoting another coach at the moment. In My possibly opinion, maybe if the losing and dysfunction goes on, the Rockets team might discourage any other coach during off season time. Finch seems to have a more extensive and successful background at coaching than J.B. Bickerstaff's most notable credentials possibly to Me are being an assistant and having a father, who by the way, seems to have been a failure in his time as a head coach. Seems like the Rockets are conceding the season otherwise, this Bickersaff guy just does not seem to have the coaching intuition and intagibles at the moment. I know some people might say it is not a good look to fire two coaches in one season, but maybe it is worse to go along with a team where the coach might be lost and in over his head when it comes to managing a team with possible talent at the moment.

    His rotations are just are possibly the worse I've seen, possibly to the point of where most of the time I can't watch the game due to possibly obvious mistakes being made during the game. Despite what people may perceive, the Houston team maybe only wins when Harden has had an excellent and heroic game and carrying the coaching staff on his back due to their possible ineptitude, which leads Me to believe the team just possibly does not have confidence in the coach no matter how much they might want to lie to themselves at the moment.

    In over his head. Doesn't know what defense is. What the hell does he even do at practice?

    He (and Morey) have set the franchise back years.
