I still believe in this team!

i support the team but i just hope they lose more games until Adelman comes to his senses about the roster

 

Agree, Adelman needs to make some changes and now. A shakeup should be in order, I just didn't think it would come this early. This team needs players that can slash to the basket and finish.

 

The problem is not the fans it is within the team itself, clearly they are not convinced in the new system and it is a lack of that identity or having a leader on the floor that is causing thes failure.

They will eventually draw a line in the sand and a better team will emerge....I HOPE !

I always have faith in this team. However I dont have faith in Rafer Alston. He isn't a qualified point guard. Now the management should make some changes to our roster.

 

Me too, I believe.

And that's why we're Clutchfans.

Even though the Rockets have disappointed us lately, we still have to support them cause there's some potential for a championship. We're still far away from it, but hey it's november.

 

I believe in this team, however the pg situation needs to addressed. We have seen what Alston can do now for over two years. We can not have absolutely zero production from the PG position.

 

how can we do if not support them?the worst thing is to suffer a couple of months

 

I believe...jst upset

 

the 1999 Spurs started 6-8.

 

I will always support the Rockets no matter how frustrating it can be at times to watch the games.
However, during that 6-1 stretch and when everyone was calling for Francis...I believe the key reply
from a couple of players and the coaches was something like - why change things when we are winning.

Now that we have consecutively lost as many games as we have won, it will be interesting to see
what (if any) changes get made to the lineup in order to get back to winning.

I am not saying that Francis is the key, but I would like to see some changes made and for Adelman to try
playing some of the guys who might put a little more heart into the game than some of the players we currently have playing.

It's still early in the season and we aren't playing good basketball right now,
so why not shake things up a little or maybe a lot to see what happens.

I'm there for every game win or lose, still believing in the Rockets!

 

I doubt they lost 8 games in a row. Guys, wake up here. I know the season is still young, but losing 6 games in a row is a BAD sign for any team. It drains team morale and doesn't provide you with enough buffer for the second half of the season.

Right now, patience is something we can't afford. We've gotta shake things up before we really become a lottery bound team.

 

Team is in a slump. Just have to let them play out of it. I know they are better than what they are showing us currently.

 

I will always root for the Rockets no matter what happens. I don't want to make excuses about it is early in the season, new coaches, tough schedule, and new offense. Look at Boston they have no troubles with the new players.

 

I believe in this team as well. The problems are simple. Some coach can fix and some he can't. What he can fix is the PG spot. You got Francis and Brooks sitting there waiting for a bone. Coach give them a bone! At this point I would love to see Francis playing PG but i'll be happy with anyone but Alston playing the PG. Heck put Synder in at PG, if Coach dosen't like Francis, he can't do any worse than Alston and there trying Head at PG.....so why not! Just kiddin! What coach can't fix is the way James, Wells, Head are shooting a low FG %. They just got to get there shot back. James and Wells will do that and hopefully soon. They need to show up little sooner to practice and shoot around and stay later and get there shot back. Head i'm not sure he can he has only hit from 23' or 2' in his few season in the NBA so I don't know about him. Aslton has never been able to shoot the ball so it doesn't matter he'll never get his shot back because he never had one! Bottem line is in Coach's system you don't need a pure PG that is pass first shoot second, (Alston can pass but anyone can shot better) you need a PG that can shoot but if someone else has a higher % shot they'll pass it. It might not be Francis but can he do any worse than Alston? Also with T-Mac playing hurt (which IMO is dumb, he should rest because he will still take the same shots but hes only hurting himself more and not making the shots) why not have a guy in there that can create his own shot.

 

Probably they are just not good at new system. Coach A needs player who can pass and shoot both. But in current players, head and JM can't pass. RA and Hayes can't shoot. Battier need to wideopen to shoot jumper. And Rockets have 2 dominate players need to shoot a lot and have the balls a lot. I feel JVG's system is much better here. Let the two supermans work along and others just need to find the open and defense.

 

I have no faith in RA.

 

just feel like every time we have like 2 season good seasons that show signs so we get all pumped up for the ext season that ends in disaster ....but I still have hope for this season becaus its still early

 

I'm just scared about how Jon Barry said it would take 2-3 years to fully implement Adelman's system. I knew it wouldn't happen overnight, but 2-3 years!? I hope it was his idea of a sick and twisted joke because we are royally f***ed if we have to wait 2-3 years to get this team rollin' offensively.

I mean right now RA is in a twilight zone. He's using most of the teams old sets.

 

It is definitley NOT the same sets. Yao in the high post, McGrady at the L of the FT line, 3 strongside players in a modified triangle, back picks by the SG's and SF's to name a few. It only LOOKS like the old sets because Adelman is sticking to the same offensively challenged trio of Battier, Alston and Hayes. When 3 of 5 starters can't drive, can't post up, can't cut to the basket, can't finish strong, have no mid-range shot and can't force transition for easy baskets...it makes ANY offense very easy to defend.
