    Wish you had a ring for 2018 Mike, but life ain't fair. Only we Rockets fans felt what really went down that year

    I don’t think he can coach or adjust deep into the playoffs, but he is obviously a talented and standup human being.

    I hope he wins one before he retires.

    Did MDA know that there was a good chance that Harden was going to demand a trade or was MDA's departure a catalyst for Harden wanting to leave (again).

    Disagree. He would have three rings if not for injuries. We have never lost to a team with less talent during his tenure. I just dont know where stuff like this comes from. Is he perfect? No. But no coach is and I just think that just because he's had some unlucky breaks that he's seen this way.

    It's hard to adjust to not having Stoudemire and Paul in the WCFs.

    glad to hear he liked his time here enough that he would become a houston stan like jvg. i had my doubts when we hired him but he proved those wrong. one underrated thing i thought was that morey could mess with the roster in the middle of the season because MDA seemed to have a great ability to integrate new parts into the team and make it all work and get everyone's buy-in.

    Houston is collecting the good will and love of former well known NBA coaches. First JVG and now Dantoni. Gotta love it.

    Pop should come over here for a few seasons after Silas.

    The Rockets should miss 27 three pointers to honor him

    Pretty sure this current team could do that accidentally also.

    Cmon man you can do this somewhere else. Respect the second most winning coach in Rockets history.
