    This sucks.
    I want this to be over.
    I hate coaching carousels.
    Pick someone - anyone so we can get on with our lives.
    We have analyzed the pros and cons of every candidate to death.
    I dont care who the hell it is at this point.
    All of this waiting can drive a man mad.
    Nothing has changed.
    God help us.
    Peace.

    I think that's what the other threads represent at this point.

    I want Larry Brown.

    God forgive the Rockets organization if we DON'T get Larry Brown and win ANYTHING less than 49 games.

    You have it backwards. God forgive Larry Brown for choosing another team over us. ;)

    If the Rockets don't play their cards right they could be left out of the game. The class acts are lining up to land. What if our runway comes up empty? Then what? I can see it now. "Rudy T. hired as the new Rocket's coach, terms of new contract revealed."

    This is the best coaching position in the NBA at the moment.

    We have the best product. If it doesn't sell, blame the marketing team.

    Great thread idea...

    It sucks that all of these coaches are, at best, equally as good as Rudy in the coaching department. Notice how the majority of these coaches benefit from coaching in the Eastern Conference?

    I miss Rudy.

    I think they must have thought they made the sale until Detroit fired their coach. No one could have planned for that.

    I really can't blame the Rockets since an offer was made and the ball was in Brown's court. They did what any org would do...continue searching.

    Good point. Nobody could have expected them to sit on their asses and wait for Larry to make up his damn mind.

    All I have to say is, "why on heaven's Earth are we cloning sheep and mice when we should be cloning RudyT for the coaching job???"

    Man...

    Rockets are like best team ever.

    God.

    Yao Ming.
    Steve Francis
    Cuttino Mobley
    New arena
    New uniforms
    New training facility
    Best city in the world
    Best strip clubs
    Fattest city
    One of best cities for African Americans.

    LORD. And no one wants to come here.

    Fair weather.

    Jesus!

    Man......all the good coaches....

    Well god. WTF is wrong?

    So appealing......and we can't get a good coach.....now we're stuck with....uhh.....Avery Johnson, Kenny Smith, and Bill Walton.

    THIS SUCKS.

    So much tampering.

    I hope it's decided quickly.

    And something amazing miraculous happens.

    Joe Dumars and Larry Brown probably deserve one another.

    If Brown chooses Detroit because he just wants to be there then so be it.

    However, I don't want to see Brown choose Detroit because THEY out bid us for Brown. This is NOT the time for Les to be pinching pennies. If he wants to make a BIG splash in getting his man he better put up the money to back it up.

    New arena, Yao, Francis...the time is now Les. Make the move!

    Rudy T loved the Rockets and wanted to be here.

    I get the feeling that Brown, Van Gundy and the others are more like opportunists looking for the last dollar.
