    McHale inherited a team that was used playing for Adelman. The team never really played with McHale's mentality. The good thing about all the young kids is that everyone knows who the boss is and what they have to do to get on the floor. The improved team defense is definitely a reflection of McHale's personality. I love the way the kids are hustling.

    Its still preseason. I hope for the same reaction and play style throughout though as I am hoping to continue to like McHale.

    This year's Rockets are young, full of potential, and buying in on McHale's system. The most important thing is that they share to ball... It's going to be fun to watch.

    Very looking forward to this season. Damn NBA League Pass is getting my money this year... sigh...

    keep in mind we played the Hornets who were coming off a back2back without Eric Gordon, or Anthony Davis.. and that this was a preseason game


    I still doubt McHale's ability to make late game adjustments

    As long as he keeps Lin on the court when the game is on the line, this team will be ok.

    Why? Be more specific.

    OH! I got it. Linsanity working in the 4th quarter...... Will it? We will see.

    I'd still take Adelman/Elston Turner over McHale every time
