    in the near future the rockets will let JVG go!!

    Hire Rudy T , Sam, Mario.

    This will pour championship nourishment into the seeds of the hungry rockets and Championships will bloom!!

    Considering the way he was treated, Tomjanovich has no reason to work for Le$ again.

    Cassell might become a good coach, but one does not simply hand over a position like that. If his playing days are over, would love to see him on the bench as an assistant.

    Mario Elie is primed and ready to take the job. Perhaps that FSN gig is just a "retainer" until the offseason? :)

    Larry Brown may be vagabound, but he is always known for taking his teams to the next levels, saving for his only failure at NY. LA Clippers had missed playoffs 15 years in a row -- probably an NBA record, before Brown became the head coach in 1992 and took the team to back-to-back playoffs. When he moved on to coach Indiana, four-time 1st-round playoff loser Pacers went to the EC Finals for the first time in 1994 and then again in 1995. In Philadephia, Brown took the team to EC Semis twice followed by an NBA Finals. Next in Detroit, Brown made the Pistons NBA Champ and Runner-up during his two-year stint.

    What can you say about JVG? One or two asterisked *achievements* followed by a bunch of sorry-assed excuses. JVG could be in the same class as Rich Carlisle, but Carlisle won a COY. If there is an award for defensive coach of the year, JVG may be a DECOY for what it's worth. LOL
