Not responsive. You were the one who asserted that a motion offence required quick players. I pointed out that Sacramento was successful even...
Yao doesn't have to be exclusively in the high post in order to make a motion offence profitable. We can mix it up. In other words, if Yao is...
I disagree. We have the good passers at least. Vlade and Peja were quick? B.S. Under Adelman, the Kings were consistently in the top 3 in...
We could have signed Udrih as a free agent, if Mark Jackson hadn't been hogging a roster spot. The agreements between the NBA and NCAA did not...
Actually, Yao does plenty of running on O, about as much as Vlade used to with the Kings. (Of course, Vlade was like 35 years old by then, but he...
If Mark Jackson hadn't hogged a roster spot for half a season in 03-04, we could have nabbed Beno Udrih a year before the Spurs drafted him. Or...
Guess who is waiting for us to call him? ;) :D
We also have plenty of players who would be smart enough to run a motion offence (T-Mac, Yao, Battier, and possibly Rafer and VSpan). An IQ...
They use up valuable roster spots. A better coach than JVG would have used those spots for training younger players. Is anyone denying that...
Even more annoying are people who make strawman arguments. Nobody has denied that Rudy left behind plenty of problems. But you make up that...
Van Gundlier, you're just hoping to spread enough confusion to allow you to run out the clock. No matter how much obscuring ink you try to...
Another thought: isn't it amusing -- and more than a little hypocritical -- that Mister Teamwork, the coach who demands absolute obedience from...
Nobody's perfect. At least Rudy T left us a ton of young talent: Yao, Francis, Mobley, Griffin, Boki. In contrast, when JVG quit, the Knicks...
I sure hope JVG is now out of the loop on personnel decisions. I suspect this started two summers ago, with the drafting of Luther. Given JVG's...
All your disagreement can't erase JVG's power struggle with his own GM. A real team player, that JVG.
Like hell. JVG won a power struggle against his own GM (Ernie Grunfeld). Grunfeld quit/resigned. From 1999 onwards, the Knicks were JVG's team;...
Rudy T left behind two immensely promising young stars in Yao and Francis, and one pretty good young player in Mobley. It's just about the...
If JVG was such a great coach, why couldn't he make it back to the finals the next year with almost exactly the same team? No, 1999 was a fluke....
Yawn. JVG made it to the finals in a weird, strike-shortened, 50-game season. It was a fluke; he never made it back again. The Knicks were...
LOL :D Almost as funny is the thought that the one player JVG didn't want (VSpan) could be the player that saves JVG's job.
