    At least D'Antoni is better than Mchale and Bickerstaff. All what the Rockets need to do is give D'Antoni a great staff and a lead assistant who has great defensive philosophies. And we'll be fine next year.

    This is beyond depressing - why Les? In the entire history of basketball when has the owner ever got it right with regards to basketball decisions? Maybe Morey got it wrong with the McHale situation(I don't think they ever should have extended him), but literally no meddling owners have ever made their team better by meddling. Hire good people and get out of the way....what the ****?

    Well, the possible Lil B curse just might seem to be keep on giving for the Rockets organization.

    What a horrible coach in search so far, with underwhelming coaching candidates seeming to be finalist at the moment. So sad, the true colors of organization being revealed at the moment. Harden will probably bail from this organization soon enough, just not good at managing superstar talent.

    Oh well, not My team, but what a train wreck seems to be happening to the team almost after a year of being in the conference finals at the time.

    This is so depressing. Hire an assistant coach who failed at his last two stops from the 76ers, the lottery team wins the No.1 Pick. A proven coach for sure.

    If I Am not mistaken, when the organization put out the bobble head of Harden cooking or something, it might of set off Lil B as the the team was maybe enabling the situation, and he possibly cursed the organization.

    Still skewed because of no culture change, leadership, accountability, and getting through to Harden. I'd be fine with the hire if we had those above things in place.

    Dwight is such a cancer that they are willing to hire Mike D'antoni to get rid of him. LOL Damn this is bad. Again he can't possibly be worst than JB. D'antoni will bench Brewers non shooting ass.

    Well if they hire D'Antoni we can assume Dwight opts out, DMo takes off, and no worth a damn FA big men come here. Get ready for Capela and Beasley.
