What has JVG won? Adelman was one shoot away from being in the NBA Championship series. Did you watch the game? Let me re-phrase that. Do you watch Rockets games? Yao gets the ball plenty of times in the low post. Tonight he was terrible, espicially in the last quater.
True thing,Yao will leave rox at 2010,simply just bcz rox doesn't need him.and to many rox's fans,he is useless here.
I couldn't help thinking, when watching the game, what if we have traded T-MAC for Billups and Prince before the season!?
Exactly, the 2nd unit (brooks, landry.. etc) were passing the ball and that was when we got the deficit to 5pts and then after the timeout Adelman put in Yao and when we have Yao in the game, all we do possession after possession is to dump it to him in the low post and see what happens. Wrong subsitution was part of the reason why we lost the game IMO.
Is clutch fans who have all the brainless biopolar fans. How about the guy who guard Billups or JR or the one who got block 6 time and the other who got back to be the usual.
I am actually becoming less interested in watching this team play. When they don't play defense, they are so offensively challenged that they are not worth watching. Yao is just not right. I don't remember seeing him look so bad as he does this season. It is almost like he struggles to move. He holds the ball forever like he doesn't know what to do. I don't get it. Artest is trying to do way too much, 18 shots?! Are you kidding? I know it was a back to back in thin air and the team was missing players, BUT, still, a very uninspiring performance. I may be changing hobbies soon. The Rockets are such a soap opera. I am ready to start skipping some episodes.
Excuse me? Did his team get knocked out on the buzzer by the Lakers? This man was claiming we should re-hire JVG because Adelman ahs won nothing, when in fact he got alot closer than JVG has ever.
WRONG. THERE IS NO SET PLAYS for Yao Ming. It's chaos out there. DO YOU WATCH ROCKET GAMES?? This is Addled-man's style. NO SET PLAYS. Just go out there and play. DUH. Now you know why this team sucked tonight. We need SET PLAYS for HALF COURT to work. JVG, despite his flaws, was a VERY GOOD COACH. He had everything structured, and he drew up SPECIFIC plays. Some may call that predictable, BUT IT WORKED for this team. With Addled-man, there's no structure. Just chaos. Yao Ming is sucking badly this year because of this dumb coach.
The problem with Yao is that he is unmotivated. This has to do with the new direction the team is going.
Look at Harris's performance, he killed the Suns. How important it is to have a decent guard or swing man in this league nowadays. Can Yao take us to the champion, no way! The NBA is a world of guards, not a center, even Shark in his supreme he needs Kobe and Wade.
We need to get Ramon Sessions from the Bucks. He comes off the bench but is a true PG trade Rafer for him now
Artest has the highest blocked shots against on the list, proves how silly hes shooting. Taking bad shots .. going into the wrong positions. Where is the Artest we wished for in Sac. averaging 20 points +? I think its coaching problem.
FACT: Under JVG, Both T-Mac and Yao Ming were super stars. Under Addled-Man, both T-Mac and Yao Ming have regressed badly. Why? Use your brain ok?? JVG > Addled-Man for the Houston Rockets.
I don't want to correct you.. yes I do. http://www.nba.com/coachfile/rick_adelman/ Known around the league as a basketball teacher with an ability to mold a team’s style of play around the strengths of his players, Adelman’s coaching highlights include a pair of NBA Finals appearances (1990 and 1992 with Portland), four trips to the Western Conference Finals (1990-92 with Portland and 2002 with Sacramento) and four division titles (1990-91 and 1991-92 with Portland; 2001-02 and 2002-03 with Sacramento). Adelman has been runner-up for NBA Coach of the Year honors three times (1990-91 with Portland; 2000-01 and 2001-02 with Sacramento).
