Too bad Jeff Van Gundy has been the first off the NBA island the last two years. Maybe he needs some hints on "outwitting and outlasting" from...
Idealistic? No, I just believe a championship-caliber head coach wouldn't have let the series slip away. How many times have teams blown a...
(1a) Did the Rockets go 1-4 at any point in the series? (1b) How many teams in the history of the NBA have allowed their opponent to come back...
(1) The Mavs were better than the Rockets, but not "so much better" that they should win four of five. Period. (2) The Rockets lost two key...
"Letting" is a choice. That is the very definition of "heart of a champion." "I will not allow you to beat me today," is quite reasonable...
I believe there is some requirement for an hour (?) of "public affairs" type programming per week. My guess is that is what you stumbled into....
I agree with you. I thought Jackson would win that series. Perhaps they should have been able to "finish," but nine rings gives one a lot of...

Whatever. I said the same thing on page 3 of this thread. He had a decent gameplan for game 1. Doesn't excuse the turnaround resulting in...

Did the lockout season affect the number of regular season games played? Answer: Yes Inference: An older team would be less likely to be...
Sorry, I have no clue as to the meaning behind your slang.
What did Jeff Van Gundy prove in New York? That he can coach a team to second best every time the NBA plays a shortened lockout season?...
To state the obvious, Phil Jackson has clearly won AND he played in the league. Fancy that.
This is very odd. Assuming "green" = "championship" and "blue" = "losing in the first round", then you are much better off with...
The head coach has the final word on player-personnel decisions with the Rockets. It was the case under RT, and according to everybody...
That, of course, is why Jackson was in the NBA for years, and why JVG got no higher than starting at some Division IV school. Again,...
