Lets wait until after January. Our schedule is a joke right now, lets see how they fare against better competition.
His PR campaign for Rick is so blatant and obtuse he is either the biggest Rick Adelman supporter or... his biggest critic. Each thread is so over-the-top makes you wonder whether his real intention is to actually praise Rick, because it usually accomplishes the opposite by the response from the user. The Plot Thickens.
I don't get all the Adelman hate. He's got a very tough situation with all the injuries but has the team playing scrappy ball. Also keep in mind for whatever reason Adelman Rockets have started slow every year. If I recall the first year he was here we started 1-6 but still finished well.
is this a joke ..? bro we are underachieved, am not saying that Rick isn't good coach, but we lost too many games where we could be 5 or 6 games above .500.
Who the heck is hating on Adelman? I don't see anyone calling him a bad coach or saying he should be fired. I see a bunch of people wondering why a thread calling him the coach of the year was started before a game where we might get to .500.
Congrats, you are the one and only who makes me take pot shots at the Rox' coach; who could make me do so. Coach of the Year for bringing the lads back from the brink...the same brink from which the lads were led by same coach?
Can we not jump the gun until we are securely at .500 tonight? Plus that .500 record could quite possibly vanish come January's brutal schedule. It could very well separate the men from the boys again.

Um, we just went through one of the easiest months of the decade. Lets talk about this at the end of January.
first of all, I always thought we had more than enough talent to be above .500. Rick just got us in this ****hole and now he is cleaning it up by miracle. I hope you werent thinking i was crazy when I was saying we are going to playoffs and be a 2nd seed.......
I'm fallenphoenix. Would you like: - a cookie - a pat on the back - to be noticed? Anyhow. I think our success has a lot to do with our newer acquisitions and younger players understanding rick's system. Rick is a great coach who knows what he's doing and how to win in the NBA. Rick's system is a great way to play the game, but requires great teamwork and chemistry. People crying out "free 'player'" don't realize this. You can't throw a player in the game who doesn't understand how our team plays the game, our way of playing doesn't allow this. I'm expecting our team to continue to develop chemistry and perhaps peak as the playoffs arrive (hoping we make the playoffs) All hail Rick the ruler! *fingers crossed*

Are you serious? We played the crappiest teams in the league recently. We SHOULD be close to .500 now. When we start winning against some good teams, then he should be considered.
