I knew this would happen. JVG was the best coach for us, but you idiots want change. Look at you now...
Meh. I think everyone on the game thread has said everything they needed to say about Adelman. Whether its "Fire RA!" or "WE WANT JVG BACK!!", there isn't disparity.
I really do believe we can get JVG back. Why hasn't he accepted any other coaching jobs? Do you think the players are doing this on purpose just to get Rick Adelman fired and get JVG back? Those are all the questions I am asking to myself..
how the heck are we better at this point this season than last season. explain yourself.... Plus, the odds of us going bak to that superior form in the second half of last season is very very slim.
I think the problem is closer to the coaching staff(scheme) than it is towards the players. I don't think the players are giving up on Adelman, I just don't think they have this whole system figured out yet..... 15 effin 3pt attempts in the first half. pfft.
yea, no coach has ever coached up energy, intensity, effort. no coach. ever. signed, Jeffery Van Gundy.
I guess I'm an idiot... thanks! What do you expect any damn coach to do? When you have the highest paid player quitting... no coach can do anything. You think Mike Brown can do anything if LeBron just quits? You think Phil Jackson can do anything if Kobe quits? Hell... Lakers played like crap last season with all the "Trade Kobe crap." How do you expect Rick to do anything with a crappy Tracy and an ageing Yao? Jeff had the 20 million lite Tracy and a young Yao. And you want to say we have Artest now? That started with Bonzi. Jeff didn't play him. Rick did. We got value; we traded him for B. Jackson. Now we have Artest. Rick has his strengths other than offense. Offense and defense starts with effort.
I won't sign saying I hate Adleman but I will say JVG would have been the better coach for this team. I definitely blame this 50/50. 50 for mac, 50 for RA.
I always like Adelman's motion offense... The Rockets practice it all the time, but always failed to execute it... Tonight's game is the best example... No ball movement at all... I think the only problem I see with Rick Adelman is his loyalty with his starters...
Aging Yao? JVG would have utilized Yao much better. Both offensively and defensively. Yao may not be the 25ppg guy he used to be, but he's at least a 22ppg guy, not a 20ppg one. And Yao would not be require to cover the likes of barnani. The Bonzi in 06-07 is different than the Bonzi in 07-08. Are you simply being nostalgic or an idiot? Benching guys lik Bonzi is the exact kind of move which brings effort and unity to the team. It SENDS a strong message- dun fuking show up if you don't wanna play. The truth is JVG had done a much better job at motivating SHE-MAC than adelman. I think this tmac has a similar psychic than several yrs ago under JVG when he re aggravated his back spasm. Who motivated him to show up?
Yao have one bad month the rest he is 22+ 10+ =. And yes he mabe not cover the likes of Barnani but Bosser instead. JVG would play Yao on Bosh getting Yao on foul trouble quick.
