    Everyone blamed stevie franchise last year for the rockets problems. im starting to think its Van Gundy. he needs to get the boot. he sucks. He doesnt know how to coach offense and it seems like TMac cant get part of the offense just like stevie couldnt last year. I wont be suprised if TMac demands a trade. What do you guys think?.....

    I didn't believe that Francis and Mobley were a good fit for Yao anyway, but I wouldn't have brought Van Gundy and his Knick battalion in either.

    Van Gundy's hiring is sort of like Jimmy Williams with the Astros. I am just waiting for him to get fired so the team can get back to winning.

    Van Grumpy destroyed Steve Francis, he is destroying Yao, and he will destroy T-Mac. :mad:

    The Rox WILL NOT give Van Grumpy his 300th win!! :D

    The Astros Ol' Scrap Iron equivalent would be the Rockets Junk Yard Dog. Not that I want him to coach the team.

    It's too late to put the triangle offense in....Maybe in the offseason.

    Are you sure that the Rocket's have a good enough team for Jackson to want to come here?

    I would have liked to see Mr. Mean, Larry Smith have a shot. Larry seemed to have the respect of the Rockets when he was an assistant coach and he had plenty of intensity when he was a player.

    I'm all for it. Everyone knows the Rockets should have a much better record than they do. Trading for other players will not make a difference. As long as Van Gundy is here, players will have to play JVG's game and watch their personal game destruct.

    Wow, seems unanimous. Where are all the Gundy supporters? Guess they're seeing the light.

    Can him.
