are you really compairingthe rockets not drafting rashard lewis to jeff skilling breaking the law and screwing lots of people out of their retirement money? it is time to move on geez.
The Rockets have screwed alot of people out of alot of money with some of their inept decisions. You think it feels good to spend money on season tickets and watch the underachieving team they have run out there time and time again along with a pathetic coach? Where is their accountability? Who the hell did the Rockets draft that season anyways? You forgive and forget fans are terrific. You let the organizations rub **** in your face and you come back asking for more.
um yeaaa, not quite the same thing. bryce drew sucked and all but its not quite breaking the law by drafting him instead of rashard lewis.
I'm sure there were plenty of people blowing their retirement savings on season tickets... and only if the Rockets would have won, they would have not lost their life savings.
if we got Rashard, do you think we would have been in a position to get the first pick (yao) ? would we have tmac? let it go buddy
Anyone stupid enough to have enough of their retirement in one stock to hurt them deserves to lose their retirement savings. Believe it or not, Enron's retirement plan offered a range of choices. It's not Skilling's fault that most of those moron employees were greedy and chose to keep 60-70 percent of their holdings in ENE. You tie up most of your worth in one stock you deserve to get burned.
Well at least you are smart enough to figure that out. Look I am no Gundy hater but the guys offense was horrible. Even the most loyal of his followers will admit that. Will you? You call it what you want but 95% of it was boring, methodical and very predictable. There was very little movement if any at all. Because it was so simplified it was easy to defend wich usually made us have to jack up shots with little or no time on the shot clock. The only reason we finished as high as we did in scoring was because we had 2 premier players. He migh not of specifically coached the team to slow it down but because he was such a bad offensive coach it worked out that way.
people call spurs boring, methodical and predicable too. its not what you do its how you do it. Also, when you only have 2 true offensive threats, one of which is a slow 7'6 center, doesnt that naturally limit what you can do? There is nothing wrong with a simple gameplan.
The SPurs are, but they can run when need be. They run set plays to get other people involved in the half court. We ran one play most of the time. How many teams would kill to have 2 offensive threats? It is how you utilize what you have that makes the offense stagnant and boring. Hell, all it takes to get into your offense quicker and score easier is a center who eats up space on the d-glass and can make an outlet pass. Duncan grabs rebounds, outlets, and watches the race horses run. When they get shut down, he is there for the half court. If our center wasn't on the perimeter chasing smalls, he could be dominated the d-glass and we already know he is a great outlet passer and can score in the half court. The showtime Lakers had a 40 year old center and ran. Never disliked JVG but I always thought he could have done more with what he had.
