[Chron] Players support Adelman, want coaches back

Ah I get it-hence your username right? FakeFan?

 

Why didn't anyone ask Terrence what he thought of Adelman?

 

I dont think the Rockets are going to let RA go. I think if he goes its going to be him choosing to.

I get two things out of that.
1) If everyone wants him back, then there is no "teacher's pet" phenomenon happening. Can we please stop using that argument?
2) The players are concerned that Adelman may not be back.

Can Les really still let him go after this?

 

Compare that to the Detroit situation. I can't believe someone actually thought Adelman wouldn't have done any better at Detroit.

 

I seriously question your basketball knowledge as a so- called "fan".

You insult Adelman, but forget to mention he's the most WINNINGEST coach in Rockets history despite having no Yao or Tmac for 95% of his time here. He's the only reason we resembled a good team this year, when NOBODY thought we'd be over 500. People on here disrespect him, but that's only because they're favorite scrub (Twill, JT, Ish etc..) never played. Adelman coached his ass off every year he was here.

 

Honestly, this is the best explanation. I have a feeling Morey convinced Les that tanking the next 5 years is worth it. I'd probably wanna leave too if I were Adelman, especially with a organization that has the fans bamboozled into thinking we're trying to win.

 

Uh oh.. Read the new Terrence Williams tweet.

 

VIDEO: Rockets players hope Rick Adelman comes back next season

I trust that the front office will make the right decisions, I couldn't care less what the players want to be honest; none of them are good enough to influence the front office's decision.

 

if he was in win now mode he should have retained artest who wasn't asking for a boat load anyways.

Seems like the angry man syndrome about the guy behind the desk making contradicting demands every 10 seconds.

 

is this a serious post?
You do realize team success is beneficial to both the FO and players right?

Now if the FO is going to do something to negatively impact that when the ENTIRE team feels a certain way, they've lost all faith in their employees and you've basically got yourself a tornado.

 

he fails to realize rick made the finals against jordan and was cheated out of it in 02.

Rick isn't suffering from alzheimers or something in which case you'd need to worry about his age when it comes to the game plan. Hes going to use what has worked for him, and what has proven to be successful.
