    TWICE.

    And should have been there if the refs weren't on team LAKERS.

    Could very well have been there again had Yao remained healthy, surely if tmac was healthy with yao and artest, we would have beat LA and then Denver and i think beat Orlando in the finals.

    BRING RICK BACK! His teams were beautiful to watch.

    Rick Adelman has a career winning % of .582 and playoff winning % of .503
    JVG has a career winning % of .575 and playoff winning % of .500

    They've won just about the same over their careers.

    If you want to talk Rockets stick to facts. If you want to push agendas go back to talking about Jeremy Lin.

    This is called ad hominem. Another tactic suitable for an 8 year old. I don't even like Tmac.

    JVG took the Knicks to the nba finals.

    Yea but you forgot to mention that's with Portland, Sacramento & Houston. 3 totally different teams. All of JVG's playoff wins are with one team, the Knicks. Maybe you stick to the facts too sir

    The only people who hate rick are mcgrady fans who cried when rick told mcgrady to step off like he was a bad singer at the Apollo theater

    That's not called a fact. It's called a fallacy. 7 of his 44 playoff wins are with the Rockets. That is called a fact.

    Absolutely, its not even close.


    Can we also get CxBBy's stupid takes out of here? How stupid do you have to be to claim he underachieved when he took Brooks/Scola/Hayes to 7 against the laker would be champs.

    It is a fact lol. You just provided a different fact. He's been to the postseason with 3 different totally different teams. JVG has had all his postseason success with one team he coached after Pat Riley. Adelman has a better resume and is the better coach. Not sure what's you're smoking
