    If I were the Rockets coach last night I would've pulled a Bull Durham:



    Adelman: Everyone get in this shower in 10 seconds or I'm fining you $100.

    Sikma: 1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, etc.

    Adelman: You guys. You lollygag the ball around on offense. You lollygag your way down to get a rebound. You lollygag in and out of the game. You know what that makes you? Jack Sikma!
    Sikma: Lollygaggers!
    Adelman: Lollygaggers! Jack, what's our record right now?

    Sikma: 31-21.

    Adelman: How'd we ever win 31?

    Sikma: It's a miracle!

    Adelman: It's a miracle. This is a simple game, you dribble the ball, you pass the ball, you shoot the ball, you rebound the ball, and YOU PLAY SOME DEFENSE! You got it?

    I was more thinking Major League. Who can the Rockets make a standee of and strip the clothes off of after every win, and don't say Morey? Who can motivate them? :cool:

    How about the cover a stand up of Les Alexander... lol take it the other direction.. from him in his skivvies to being all covered up.

    Good thread OP.

    I'd have pulled a Norman Dale and stuck ole Ollie on the court. At least he would have tried.

    I don't know, Ollie was pretty bad. All he could do was hit free throws in the clutch granny style and he wasn't much of a ball handler or defender which is what we need.

    I think maybe this team could use the advice from the coach from Teen Wolf:

    Coach Finstock: There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.

    I think adelman should have just sat the starters and played the reserves for the second half cause i had a feeling after that t-mac blown dunk that we were gonna lose

    I think tomorrow night he should pull a Greg Popovich and sit all the starters with the exception of Yao, Luis, and Rafer... at least rafer was trying last night we had no movement several times i saw rafer actually dribble in circles (ala tecmo bowl style)

    If only Rafer could pull a Hershel Walker on Tecmo Bowl! Hershel was unstoppable on that game.

    I love Hershel although he screwed my Vikings up for years. Did you guys know that Hershel never lifted? He got his great strength and physique by doing calisthenics to the tune of a thousand push ups and sit ups a day.
