    If Les can't listen to his own GM, why would he listen to any of us?

    I'm surprised this hasn't taken off yet. There were a lot of people griping earlier. Where y'all at?

    "As a lifelong fan of the Houston Rockets who has had nothing but the utmost respect for Les Alexander, Daryl Morey, and all of the players that have come through this organization...I feel like it would be nothing but disrespect to myself and the entire fan base if Mike D'Antoni is selected as the next head coach. I'm not sure how many coaching failures it takes to disqualify a candidate, but I think D'Antoni approaches that level. We need an emphasis on defense and a balanced offensive attack. Mike's coaching tenures have been predicated on a fast-paced offense that only saw success in Phoenix when it had the perfect pieces to complement it (including an other-worldly point guard in Steve Nash). Please reconsider this potentially disastrous hire."

    Sincerely,
    *** ******

    It's probably important to display some competence, otherwise they will chalk it up to "what do they know about stats/organizations"?

    In reality this is one of the most knowledgeable sports forums I've ever seen. Multiple cap experts, multiple stats experts, lots of traffic, routine troll attacks ensure that the system remains strong.

    Don't just say you're unhappy or you don't like it. Give some actual substance. For example, tell them that hiring Mike Woodson as D'Antoni's assistant didn't save the Knicks from underperforming even considering the talent on that team.

    Or say that Harden is THIS close to bolting, and D'Antoni is the perfect guy to piss a star player off.

    Or make a real comparison with JVG, although I suspect there is no difference between the two. They are just the inverse of each other.
