I think you can conceivably mix and match bigs between Capela (our best roll man), D Mo (our best passer and post scorer), Beasley (our best pure...
He is worse than replacement. In other words, you can find almost any knucklehead guard in the league and do better. His BBIQ is poor, he's not a...
He mixed things up when he had Diaw on the court - Diaw I think is one of the closest correlates to D Mo's game. He would use Diaw from the high...
He was given another impossible task in staying competitive for playoff seeding while rebuilding and chasing a star, and he succeeded. I think...
This. There's plenty of evidence we weren't as good defensively as our numbers showed. Teams missed more open shots - OPEN - vs. us in 14-15 than...
I think Sacramento had Joerger pegged within minutes of being fired, at least according to one guy who is close to the owner. Normally I don't...
Just playing Devil's advocate ;) I think we can all agree MDA was not the best coach available. Even if Thibs wasn't on the market, we had a shot...
Actually, it probably shouldn't have been bumped all last year as D Mo was not an X factor, or any kind of factor. In 14-15, he was our 2nd best...
I get it - but I hope that scenario doesn't materialize. It is much easier to build around a player like Harden over the course of his entire...
I'm not saying that your scenario isn't LIKELY, in fact given that only 1/30 teams win a chip, it's the MOST LIKELY. But it is a disaster scenario...
Wow, that's the apocalypse scenario, and definitely a possibility, but let's see what MDA can do before we start abandoning ship!
I think having two creators helped us a lot in 13-14. Having a guy like Rubio, Llull, or even Lin as a secondary creator (forgive the blasphemy...
Look at what D'Antoni did with guys like Diaw. Elite passers, great post players, SMART players. D Mo would be PERFECT for a D'Antoni offense.
Adelman was one of the best coaches we've had in Rockets history , and the day we let him go for McHale was really a dark day. Imagine what Rick...
Yep. He's actually correct if you narrow to active coaches, now that Karl is gone. Well, semi-correct - Thibodeau, by the logic above, should be...
His TO rate wasn't even tops on his team. The TO thing is a problem but blown out of proportion.
Lawson was piss poor in Indiana too. Nice try. Rubio is MUCH better. Good defender and passer.
He was also an excellent rim protector. I'm not nearly as down on him as you are. I think he's replaceable but he's a good piece and can be a starter.
They can make 2-for-1 moves to move up in the draft, dangle picks to upgrade individual spots, and use some of their 2nd rounders to stash...
He was by far our best roll man last year.
