...and this run at the bottom of the league is entirely due to Mr. Van Gundy's offensive schemes. :rolleyes:
The Rockets were not "worse last year." They are further under .500 than they have been at any point since the Yao Ming-less, Meniere's...
Anyone care to defend the second quarter of the Grizzlies game?
Absolutely. The players need to take some of the blame. However, the coach needs to take as much, if not more. These are "his guys,"...
(1) With the exception of Yao Ming, every single one of these players is hand-picked by Mr. Van Gundy. That makes it his fault when shots are...
If the "savior" is a 30+ year old journeyman point guard, something is terribly wrong. Incidentally, Sura is done. D-O-N-E. There's a...
Yao Ming showed more creativity, better footwork, and an overall "better" offensive game his rookie year than any season under Mister Van Gundy.
Nonsense. Yao's offensive play was better his rookie year than it has been since.
Incorrect. The Rockets were NEVER six games under .500 last season. The low point was 6-11, after an overtime loss to the Dallas Mavericks...
Certainly easier, but remember: 3 back-to-backs, including a 4-game in 5-day stretch. The Celtics beat the Rockets by 20 in Boston. NO/OK...
(1) Mr. Van Gundy is owed a boatload of money. Le$ will not just throw that away. (2) Rudy Tomjanovich is under contract to the Lakers. (2a)...
"With all the other injuries, and the age factor on that basketball team, I don't know if it will really allow them to compete. The more you...
It isn't going to happen. The Rockets could fail to make the playoffs with 40-45 victories, and Mr. Van Gundy will stay through this season...
fine=winning playoff series. horrible=the worst game 7 loss in the history of game 7's.
With McGrady, the Rockets offense was in the bottom half of the league (20th, to be precise) in scoring. Without McGrady, the Rockets offense...
Eddie Jordan has an NBA championship ring. Eddie Jordan has ties to Washington (if not necessarily the Wizards organization). As of today,...
The last thing I want to do is give Mr. Van Gundy any pleasure. He is like that mean old man who keeps things when they land in his yard....
"All is well" only for those who enjoy 0.300 basketball, being 5.5 games out of the division, and being among the last in the league.
Then again, things could collapse completely, Texans-style, and Le$ would have to eat that extra year to keep some semblance of a fan base intact.
Perhaps he might coax better performances from his players not named Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming if Mr. Van Gundy showed a little faith in them to...
