    The videos are posted on the rox website. Somebody linked them. Check them out.

    Lamb has a nice stroke and scored easily on ****ing Parsons. Machado was finishing strong around the rim.

    why not look at what he did for Lowry( who was a bench warmer in Memphis). AB( who developed him while Rafer was traded), and Gogi(when the Suns gave up on him)


    I give credit to Morey for drafting the players like Carl Landry, Chuck Hayes and others. But i give Adelman credit for developing them( especially the Chuck-Wagon)

    Chuck Hayes was a terrible FT under JVG, Hayes was nowhere near the passer he was under JVG

    stop trying to discredit Adelman


    Its obvious why Patterson took a step back this year

    I disagree with you. And Bynum is not a superstar.

    Passing is more due to court vision and bball IQ. Hayes already had great BBall IQ when he came in, he would have good 1-2s with Tmac that resulted in some uncontested layups. He didn't pass a lot during the JVG years because JVG's play was oldschool, the bigs were expected to be handed the ball and finish inside, not stay in the high post and make fancy passes to other players.

    As for Hayes fixing his hitch, it has more to do with Dawson than with Adelman. Look up archives of Hayes working on his ft during the summer.

    Also just to comment on this, Adelman was such a great teacher he benched Patterson for like 10 straight games without even seeing what he can do.

    Patterson took a step back due to his injury, and not because he changed teachers. Its really funny how always assume everything good was due to Adelman, everything that regressed was because we let him go.

    He's a good coach, but c'mon. How did the Wolves do again? :rolleyes:

    They overachieved and were able to beat us 3 times last year

    The were on verge of breaking through for a playoff spot until Rubio got injured. They were the 8th seed at the time of Rubio's injury

    No way you would have told me before the season, that the Wolves would have even sniffed the 8th in the WEST.

    Adelman was delevoping Rubio quite nicely, and Pekovic as well( with Sikma)

    Adelman is a great coach, and is very underrated by most Rockets Fans

    And Bynum is a superstar player( Based on his production for as little touches he recieves every game from Kobrick)

    Nope. Patterson himself admitted that his ankle was hurting much more the year before with Adelman than it was this season with McHale. Here is the interview:

    Chuck Hayes was doing much better with Jeff Van Gundy than he did during the first couple years under Adelman. He was shooting 60%+ from the free throw line, playing regular minutes and overall very efficient.

    Hayes' role diminished (with the addition of more talent) under Adelman and so did his production even on a per-minute basis, reaching its bottom in 2008-2009, when he averaged only 5.4 pts per 36 minutes, shot 37% from the field and 37% fro mthe FT line. He then rebounded in 09/10 and 10/11, though.

    Then, his 11/12 season in Sacramento is arguably just as bad as his 08/09 season, if not worse.

    The story is a lot more nuanced than some people make it out to be.
