I agree. Firing adleman was most likely Les's decision. Seriously going to suck watching ugly basketball again. We were spoiled the last few years...
THIS. This decision had Les's fingerprints all over it, and yet Morey gets crucified for it. Les had to be convinced not to fire Rick earlier in...
That's how I see it, and my first thoughts when I saw the news. As smart as Morey is, I do t see him forcing out a coach that wanted to be here,...
Lol, my thoughts exactly. Don't see that working with the rockets who have little to no ISO talent outside of Kmart. that would be ugly. We would...
We also have Luis scola and chuck Hayes guarding the paint. Go ahead and tell me which teams in the post season don't have at least be defensive...
By any chance, did you notice who the rockets put out on the floor over the course of the season. 6'6 center. Chuck Hayes. Chase Buddinger. Kevin...
pretty much sums up my feelings. Now instead of just needing talent, you need a coach and talent since you get rid of a coach with a great system...
So basically we just tune out for the next couple of years ( hopefully that's all it takes ) while the rockets suck until they hit the jackpot in...
doesn't really matter if he brings jvg back with him, they need an actual center and players that can actually play d. Starting chuck and bud and...
the thing is, adleman is a better coach than either of them. If you're only a couple of additions away, why would you get rid of one of the top...
Its hard to blame Morey for any of the rockets struggles, or Rick for that matter. They were both handcuffed by two superstars that fell apart....
I'm sure they do. Whether or not I like that ricks leaving, you can bet Morey and probably Les have put a ton of thought into this decision. I'm...
Again, do some research. Rick has always been a solid defensive coach ( Portland and sacramento and here when we had the players ). Your le making...
look at our roster, you can't expect lock down defense with the players we have. That's like expecting Shane to put up tmac numbers nightly. You...
I assumed that when you said everyone here was going on about how stacked re team was before the season, you meant this year. It was stacked, as...
LOL dude. The year they improved was the year they drafted derrick rose, brought in John salmons and brad Miller, all of whom made pretty hig...
Dude, that was when we thought this was a team centered around a returning Yao, a dominant center. That would be an outstanding team. He would...
Wait, did you really just compare Rick adelman to Vinny del negro. And you called idiots? You can't even begin to compare the bulls coaching...
That is the kind of logic that got the kings and pistons where they are at, not to mention countless other teams.
90% of what you have said is. Firing a hof coach for winning with the players that management gave him IS a bad decision. Suicide IS a bad...
