Bickerstaff lineups, rotations and minutes are horriable

    How does KJ not get any of Brewer's minutes?

    Dude is our most athletic, potentially best one on one defender. And we give up 30 points EVERY QUARTER.

    Heeeeyyyy, let's promote the "defensive coordinator" of our ****ty defense to head coach!

    Why did Daryl pass on "wondercoach" anyways? Tried to force the guy on Rick Adelman for ****s sake.

    Just play the kids. Tell them they will stay on the court as long as they play defense. I would rather watch KJ, Harrell, and Dekker get some minutes than to watch a bunch of vets stand around and let the other team dunk all night. It would at least be more interesting.

    I thought rotations were bad with Adleman and then McHale came who I thought was the worst I'd ever seen. Bickerstaff has surpassed all of my worst nightmares. I think I'd rather a bucket of paint coach this team than JBB.

    This is like when Ben Wyatt was the mayor of Icetown. This is a man who is way under qualified for a position. Seems like a nice guy, but how can he not see that Harrell, DMO and KJ should all be getting extended minutes? How can he not see that Jones is -10 or worse in every game he enters? How can he not see that Brewer is not a power forward and will never be one?

    Morey's biggest mistake besides drafting Marcus Morris has been his constant failure to put a REAL coach on this team. Finch isn't the answer either but I'd rather see him finish the season than JBB.

    he's obviously in over his head and is quickly drowning with his poor choices.

    JB has given up on Lawson

    Doesnt help he plays him with the worst type of players

    Doc noticed it, time for JB to notice it. Smith is not good at basketball anymore.
    Got this dude taking heat checks like he is KD.. Not to mention he doesnt move on defense. Cole Aldrich took his spot for a reason. DUDE IS DONE

    I'll be so happy when we get a real coach this summer.

    "We need to be better defensively." ~JB

    Really? The season is almost over and he just keeps repeating the same thing.

    JB's coaching doesn't matter. His offensive and defensive schemes don't matter.

    Harden's 4 turnovers are what matters.

    Don't count on it. Word out on the street is that Morey wants to hire Kelvin Sampson :rolleyes:

    I do not understand why some people might believe that Chris Finch might not be able to have success with this team. I understand he probably has no head coaching experience with a NBA team yet, but he has had success at every other stop except one, if I Am not mistaken, during his career as a head coach. If he does not succeed and fails, which very well may be the case, then hey, you possibly tried everything you could to salvage the season and now you can move on with the next season.

    I also did not understand the decision to promote J.B. Bickerstaff permanently in the first place, but I also do not understand what the mentality on coaching is with the Rockets organization.

    Especially when what this team needs are young, hungry athletes who will play hard. It is absurd that KJ and Harrell can't get any run.

    Question: Why did Morey promote JB when he was so adamant that Chris Finch be on the team? Why didn't he just promote Finch?

    Just wondering.

    I'd rather fire Morey and promote Rosas who can then get Messina to coach in that case.

    Sampson is another mediocre retread.

    Oh, and let's continue to bench Harrell and KJ while continuing to play Jones, Lawson, and Brewer....
