    I understood that Coach Ty Lue was meeting with the Houston Rockets Brass last Sunday in Las Vegas!
    How is that there isn't any news of the meeting. As a long time Fan of the Rockets I would have expected
    some news of the meeting.. ( Get busy Morey!)
    1) Did the meeting take place? 2) Is there any follow up?
    3) Can we expect any info on our future Coaches?

    Meeting was postponed until sometime in the week.
    Don't know when, and if they really want him, I hope he doesn't Doc-Rivers the team.

    He will accept Clips or Peli's job before interviewing with Rockets.

    Just not sure if the reschedule was due to Rockets or Lue's side.

    Par for course.

    Doc Rivers cancelled the interview.

    Lue postpone?

    Why not win Championships in Houston? Houston has a better chance.

    They want Atkinson who is a frozen Salisbury TV dinner.

    Honesty, Doc and Lue are better but if we can't get Lue I would take Silas or Atkinson.

    Something tells me they will take Atkinson regardless for a McHale like hire.

    Ty Lue is good with the players reputation......why pay the hefty price when we have that in-house with John Lucas.

    He's also a great tactician; I am not sure if Lucas is.

    I legit have no knowledge about Lue. What is it about him that makes everyone think he's good HC material?

    Yeah, every coach that has LeBron is a good tactician.....not so bright when LeBron leaves.

    Ty wants $7 M per year. Rockets should have just stayed with D’Antoni for that much. D’Antoni, the innovator
    of today’s offenses. Ty can’t adapt the offense nearly as well as D’Antoni can.

    Ty has never been accused of being an offensive genius.

    We are waiting for the other teams to finish hiring their coaches. Then we will have more leverage to negotiate salary when we have the only head coach job opening in the league.

    Because he had K Love, Kyrie Irving, and LeBron James in Cleveland and Kawhi, Paul George, Beverley, and Lou Williams with Clippers. That team that lost while being up 3-1.

    Apparently he taught them all they know. Those clowns were never any good before Lue started coaching them.

    What we ran here was not a offense lol. Throughout MDAs tenure we ran absolutely no plays on offense, outside of inbound plays. Plus MDA was not the creator of Moreyball. Any coach we bring beside JVG, will be better than Moreyball

    As long as westbrook is on the roster there is absolutely no chance.
