    My lord we are putting arguably one of the greatest offensive minds in Mike Dantoni in the same sentence as Kevin McFail ? it’s come down to this?

    Ya and that is exactly why mike would win. Octopus icecream sounds absolutely disgusting. This is a guy who got his first culinary job after culinary school at an Iron Chef's restaurant NYC when it first opened.

    If you put Mike D'Antoni back in the 90s, he wouldn't even want Hakeem Olajuwon on the team.

    Maybe the Texans can hire MDA as coach
    He can implement that 8 man rotation
    Deshaun Watson would be running around as DB and QB

    And the Texans would never call time out

    genius as genius

    being a revolutionary ideas creator doesnt mean you are a great coach to win the ring... hiring james naismith or whoever invented basketball doesnt guarantees the title

    otoh a coach that has no freakin clue when to call a simple timeout or who deems half his roster unplayable come playoffs time should be in the same sentence with the word greatest

    so? i hold the coach responsible for bad preparation and not being able to engage his best player for the most important game lolololl

    what about the game 5? we had that game in the pocket its absolutely on the coach for not being able to close it properly

    its the very definition of mediocrity.... trying to win it all but with no real chance....not serious contenders... just pretenders...and sometimes not even pretenders but clearly out of the race...

    you cant really call yourself a contender when half of this board could call a better timeout then your coach.... MDA WAS A JOKE

    i am not watching basketball for COT award and don't care about MVP awards and allstar games...i never watched an allstar game in my life....nor dunk contest nor 3pt contest...
    it was fun and all at times but it dont mean a thing without a ring...

    I’m glad some of the Rockets fans here actually watch all these games in the playoffs

    seems to me a championship level coach actually gets to the nba finals

    Rick got good old Clyde Drexler and beat the entire western conference twice .

    Prime Rick Adelman would walk over Mike D’Antoni like he was a rug

    I can tell by your nickname
    You believe in the pure truth

    let’s just say I talk hoops with coworkers and they all are from different places
    One colleague is a die hard Laker fan. I said we got your boy D’Antoni when we signed him
    He laughed said this ‘you know he doesn’t really coach right ?’ The Laker fans were happy he was gone

    Bill Fitch is in the Hall of Fame

    yeah and took the Rockets to the finals and knew how to play his best players in the playoffs



    D’Antoni Only Fans is missing history like Mike is missing 7 footers on the squad

    also dope Rockets mug on his desk
