    I went with coaching because I'm disappointed with some of the crap rotations we've put out there, the minutes we're giving Yao, T-Mac, and Artest, and that in Year 2 of Adelman, there's still barely any motion in our offense. People just standing around watching the Big 3.

    Yao followed by Tracy. Tracy usually starts crappy and heats up sometime in December/January so crappy October has been the norm for him.

    Yao, on the other hand has been a steady rock of contribution. He might not put up the numbers but is usually solid and reliable. This season that's not being the case. I'm personally worried about his production for this year if he doesn't start being the Yao we know and love.

    I think it was an SI poll that asked NBA players who the most over-rated players were. I'll give you a clue: 2 of our Brick 3 were prominently named by fellow players ....

    LOL. Note that Stevie Franchise is also on that list. So we have 3 of the top 5 most over-rated players in 2006. That's another big 3 we should be proud of.

    I'm pretty sure we'd have #1 and #2 right now.

    Come on, I can not even believe you guys really mean TMAC and YAO are the biggest disappointment.

    TMAC suck, why not. Hard to say no. But did no one sick before? The only one who stupid is the one still try to use him, just give him a break. TMAC never have a strong mind about his injury, that is a smart choose for himself. Come on, why not, one more year of NBA player means tons of money. Not good for sport sprits or our fans. But what the fxxk, anybody care about him after his retire? We need to understand what he did is right for him. For the team, let him rest until he really can play like TMAC, is that so hard with so many talents in your team!!

    YAO suck? give me a BREAK! You expect an Asian to run 35 minutes every single game and want him in a good condition? R U nuts? Yao has gone for Olympics for the summer, do not tell me you do not care, those are games too! What is fxxking wrong with Dorsey, I am sorry I do not know if I spell his name right, because I do not even get a chance to see him on the court.That is what is Morey do for YAO, why Rockets even pay for this guy?
    Let us see what he can do! OK, even we are now have the best record as Lakers or Celtics because of Yao need to run for 35 minutes. He will get injuried!!! And Rockets will suck again!!! Even if Yao is any other black center like Bynam, 35 minutes is crazy! Without even Yao and TMAC, rockets still have Artest and other talents, a reasonable coach can win games!!

    Rick Adleman is the reason, he is the one who makes everything wrong. Do not like the 22 strike disturb you. Did you see any of those game wins because of Adleman's famous Princeton? Rockets win because of their high 3 point shooting, weak of the first several teams and the injury of the opponent team, luck of the team, nothing with Aldeman. Ok, maybe because of the paean sang by Adleman to these player. How many times did you ever see Rockets win by the final shoots after Adleman taken over Rockets? I can not even remember one even I nealry watched every single Rockets' game. Why not? Rockets are not talented enough? Because no tactics, Rick do not have anything, the only thing he say while break was called is "Play seriously, pass the ball, run and get the position." Coach as Adleman is such an easy position that I think everyone should apply. There are 13 player in this team who can play that we can only see 7 to 8 people run to death, what was this stupid old man thinking? Look what he did to our Francis last season, not let him play for 10 games. Because of the pressure, let Steve play, find he is quit good, then let him play even when Steve is sick, just like what he did to TMAC now, the only difference is Francis is old and not the no 1 in the team, and Rick just kick Francis out his plan.

    Come on, Rockets fans and the managers, Rick Adleman and his Princeton are not fit for Rockets and YAO, TMAC and Artest is not gonna be able to wait for another year. Do not waste this opportunity to get the champion, it might be our last chance for several years, seriously. Let us chance the coach, he is not suitable for this team. It is a late decision that the best coach choice of Rockets has gone to Bobcats, but still Johnson is not bad. The only reason he is fired is because of stupid trade decision of Cuban. Johnson can lead Rockets to the very top, look what he did for the Mavericks. The important thing is he know how to balance defence and offence and he is not stupid when the team needs tactics.
    SO WHAT IS OUR WAY TO GET THE CHAMPION? FIRE RICK ADLEMAN. That is our only chance. I CAN PROMISE YOU IF ADLEMAN IS THE COACH OF ROCKETS, ROCKETS WOULD NEVER EVER BE THE CHAMPIONSHIP OF NBA AGAIN.

    this is the freaking funniest poll ever! Tmac is tied with the Candiman! :D
    they were right about Marbury, he can't even come off the bench in NY. Even Luther Head sees more PT than him.

    The most overrated?

    Stephon Marbury, Knicks.....12%
    Yao Ming, Rockets.....10%
    Steve Francis, Magic.....9%
    Carmello Anthony, Nuggets.....5%
    Tracy McGrady, Rockets.....4%
    Michael Olowokandi, Celtics.....4%

    Kobe Bryant 3%
    Paul Pierce 3%

    Where's the option for all the above? I think everyone here is contributing to the Rox slow start. Things will change for the better when Battier returns, but in the meantime this is what we have to look forward to.

    overall I'd say Yao Ming

    T-Mac wins this for his last two games though.

    Everyone must be held to account - but the 5 votes for Barry absolutely astound me :confused:

    He has chipped in with his brief spurts and banged a couple of 3's.

    What were you people expecting 20 and 10?

    He'll be even more beneficial come playoff time.

    McGrady not at 100%. Yao not at 100%. Artest not playing his game.

    I can't wait to call out all these people who think the sky is falling. Only idiots trash their players/scream for trades this early in the season.
