    I want Vogel in Houston...but it's okay if he's not the head coach - seems like either Vogel needs to be the defensive guy under another head coach or he needs a strong offensive guy directly under him. Either scenario I would be ecstatic about.

    Is he trying to tell Morey to coach instead?

    I'd love to have Vogel as the coach. He did a solid job with the Pacers.

    Now hakeemthegreat is going to come in and b**** about the fact that Vogel was in the east, and how that metric is meaningless.

    Can't trade Harden for George, so trade McHale for Vogel instead?
