    Too soon in his career to make that determination. I mean, more than likely you are right due to how excellent of a coach Adleman was but it's still too soon.

    I think it is but the West is better as a whole. I'd put us in the bottom 4 in the west right now and this roster would probably be top 7 in the west back then. Hopefully we unload a few more vets soon.

    Our current state of this team is exactly the same as pre Harden trade.

    And I think the mindset and expectation of the fans at that time before we are trading for Harden will be the same.

    This one is awesome.

    While you are seeing Mcfail is jerking with his hand and shaking his man bob but then down there it is reminding us : Enjoy Responsibly.

    The Kmart team was way better. Lowry, Brooks, Dragic were all studs

    I Think the Kobe Lakers would beat the Lebron Lakers but that’s just my opinion. I think the Heatles would beat the current Nets big 3

    Yeah all those guys could create their own offense. Only John wall can create and to some degree cousins. It’ll be interesting to see what Oladipo brings

    About the same. This team will try to get in the playoffs this year. It’s what happens next that will decide the future.

    Me too. Right up there with Dream, Beard and Yao among my top 5 favorite all-time Rockets. I'd love to see him come back in a coaching capacity at some point.
