    In the waning seconds, a group of fans sitting behind the Houston bench began chanting "Fire Gundy!" Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy looked at the vocal bunch, nodded at them and continued frowning at his team's miserable performance.

    Anyone we know in that group? :D

    Gotta at least give JVG credit for acknowledging the fans. Hell, for him, that is probably what he's been wanting all along. The guy seems to thrive on negative emotions.

    That's kind of odd. Maybe JVG has quit on himself. You would think that he would at least have the common courtesy to flip them off or grab his crotch or something...

    Saw the FSN post game report. JVG had his it is all on me speech ready to roll and those that rebound will always find ways to rebound. This guy needs to re-evaluate his whole process quick.

    Come on. JVG coached the Knicks, I'm sure he's heard every line in the book.

    You think he hasn't been? I know someone who said that you could hear him screaming from down the hall on several occassions during practice and at halftime this season. He hammers guys even when they are on the floor during games.

    some what agree

    on the acknowledging the crowd

    from the interview i have heard him do, especially those WFAN NY interview i get the impression the verbal translation of his nod would have been something like

    "the way we are playing i deserve that"

    not sure about the negative emotions though

    for the me the question remains is JVG's coaching the cause of our poor shooting or our inability to box out and rebound

    I wonder why he nodded. Was Les one of those screaming at him?

    Can you imagine what COULD be happening behind the scenes?

    Les (phone): Hey, Mr. Cuban. Can we have a word with Del, please? I mean, do you REALLY need all those coaches?

    or

    Les (phone): Phil, how's it going? How 'bout coming back, huh? I can even throw in one of MY daughters to date if you would like.

    He needs to start sticking up for the guys.

    I can't remember the last time he stood up for Yao and all those fouls he has to put up with.

    Phil Jackson would have been successfully whining to the head office.

    JVG and Phil hate each other, but HEY JVG !! Phil has NINE FRICKEN rings how many do you have?

    Pistons forward Darko Milicic had even gotten second-quarter playing time as if Detroit coach Larry Brown had decided the game was over.


    They played the human victory cigar against us in the first half.... Thats gotta be some kind of sign. :(
