Targeting only “shooters” is exactly why our roster consists of nothing but Yao, Mcgrady, Battier, and a bunch of scrubs. When you target only one...
Before you can model teams that have won it all, you have to have acquire enough talent to model them. We’re no where close. Those teams (SA and...
Also, my point was not that up-tempo basketball wins championships. SamFisher claimed that systems (up-tempo/half-court) and coaches don’t win...
How much closer have they come to winning a ring than the Rockets? The Rockets have tried building a team that resembles Miami, Detroit and San...
It’s a player’s league, but what type of system is best suited for acquiring players? Up-tempo or half court? I say up-tempo. It gives you...
I think Battier+Sura for Diaw would be a fair swap. The Suns need to shed salary and get improve defensively. We need another playmaker.
Boris Diaw would be the guy I would be targeting. 1. He’s overpaid ($9 mil per), which is a good thing for the Rockets. Our best chance at...
If I remember correctly, Jon Barry corroborated Vescey’s rumor before a broadcast during the playoffs. He said something about how Van Gundy was...
I was underwhelmed when the Rockets decided to replace Rudy with Van Gundy and, to be honest, I’m pretty underwhelmed with Adelman as well. I...
That’s the problem. Van Gundy is too intent on running an inside-out offense where Yao clogs up the paint and the guards become strictly jump...
This has been the same story with Van Gundy his entire tenure here in Houston. He's great at getting players open looks, yet they always shoot a...
With the way the West is stacked, a mediocre offense is not going to cut it. The Rockets offense during the playoffs was not even mediocre. It...
An uptempo offense is definitely not ideal for Yao, which is precisely why Yao should not be such a big focal point in our offense. Yao should be...
90’s basketball was much more superstar-oriented than it is today. Basically it was “give the ball to your best player (usually the center),...
If Adelman is indeed the new coach, I would be shocked if the Rockets don’t make a hard push for Matt Barnes with the MLE. He’s almost a carbon...
Maybe he'll rededicate himself and have great season just to spite Van Gundy.
I watched every game of the Jazz-Rockets series, and all I saw was controlled half-court basketball, just like the Rockets like it. They beat us...
What other Western Conference playoff teams would have been a better matchup for us? Phoenix? Dallas? San Antonio? Golden State? Especially...
I underrated this Jazz team. They’re a lot better than I thought they were. Without question, a superior team to the Rockets. And with the...
Hmm...Doc Rocket voted for Marc Iavaroni. I wonder if that means something.
