    How come I have not heard any mention of his name in reference to the head coach vacancy? Defensive-minded coach who overachieved with injury-depleted teams in the past. What could he do with real talent here in Houston? At the very least, he could get us to play real defense - that's the key ingredient right there IMO.

    Because he's not one of the top 4 guys. Because Les has made it clear he wants an up-tempo offense. Other reasons too but that should be sufficient.

    God that would be a nightmare......

    We would have to get used to seeing this:

    Rockets 70
    Clippers 63

    Wouldn't you miss all of that witty "Czar of the Telestrator" back and forth between him and marv albert?

    in New York

    Fratello has bored the dickens out of every fan who has attended one of his games -- and alienated every player on his own
    team(s) after too short a while.

    Leave him with Marv. Or send him to Clipperland or Hornetville. Keep him away from the Rox.
