you can't drop Vogel, Udoka is probably going to another team, you want as many candidates as possible. I hope they land Nurse
He showed you he can change an entire culture and be a 20 year dude in just one season, in which he got fired for actions that owuld go against setting a good culture?
[QUOTE="CXbby, post: 14599155, member: 9639". Udoka on the Raptors will make them contenders within 3 years, I’ll guarantee that. The Raptors underperformed this year and a lot of that had to do with Nurse.[/QUOTE]
[/QUOTE] two years. Tops. I really don’t understand the ennui that permeated that roster this season. PS gimme Ime. And OG.
Udoka has lost his moral authority to lead based on his inability to control his sexual desires at the office. Given the maturity struggles of several Rockets players and our team-specific needs with managing young players, I don't think Udoka is our guy.
Masai is one of the best talent evaluators in the league, right up there with Presti, that’s he is rightfully going after Udoka. It’s painfully obvious who is the right choice and it isn’t even close and the Rockets will continue to fumble because this front office is clueless.
been said for weeks; relationships matter and he and Uriji (sp?) go back. perhaps things were feeling too Ime/Houston which forced timing? odd that it’s ‘so long’ after season’s end…
I wouldn't b too mad if we grab nurse, but if we grab Vogel then I would b quite triggered. The one time we really want tilman to b a bit hands on he's not gonna jump the gun on ime
@Jontro Ime would boost Houston’s local economy especially the galleria area places that are open late
Hmm - NN owed $8mil/next season. Could someone with TF initials get a bargain??? 4-year deal, free 1st go-round.
If Nick Nurse was so good, Toronto wouldn't be letting him go. Udoka is number one for me. Dick in pants or not.
Is that not a one sided statement? Perhaps he wants to go as well. It's not like if he loses his job he is out of options and loses money. The team could be doing a reset and it would take a few years to get to where a team like the Rockets or Pistons are at. Udoka and Nurse are both fine choices.
Nurse has been the Vipers coach so there's a certain level of familiarity that he may have with the Houston Rockets. If Udoka hadn't fallen out of grace, he would have been my number 1 choice. Vogel and Atkinson are equal for me. They're a tier below Udoka and Nurse imo.
I’m actually good with any of the three options we are looking at, BUT I just feel like Ime would be a better fit now and going forward for this organization. He is a coach that requires his team to buy in on D first and ball and player movement on offense. If we would be anything close to what he learned in SA that would be fantastic. He did that in one year in Boston and now that culture is set. That is the type of culture we need here.
