This is from the 13th, but I thought it was interesting. Jay (Chi-Town): hey doc,who do u thin will be the next great center, Eddy Curry, or Yoa Ming? Dr. Jack Ramsay: Yao's my man. He'll become a great NBA center...Rockets need better offense to take advantage of his skills...but he's going to be a top NBA center before he's finished...Curry got it going too...can he continue??
Let's see. Who designs the offensive scheme? Who is responsible for teaching and coaching the players? With all due respect to him, I hope Rudy steps aside. He's proven he has no clue with this bunch. D R
The beginning of the season, we all had no clue how good Yao could be his first season... So the offense wasn't made for him to be A focal point... Well, thank goodness we were all amazed by his ability... You can't change the offense in the middle of the season and hope to win... I thought the coaching staff did as much as they could to get Yao in positions that he was comfortable in... Next season the offense will flow through Yao but what happens when he misses the beginning of the season???? Does the offense run through Kelvin Cato, I think not... I'm saying that the offense will not run through Yao but he will only give Houston easier shots and layups... You still have a young 21 year old Superstar that needs to develop physically and a franchise in Stevie that is only 24-25... We have a bright future but its just a matter of players accepting their roles... If we make no moves I would expect the same lineup like last season except Maurice Taylor starting instead of EG...
i thought i was the only one who noticed the number of sound alike names...it seems to happen most frequently with soundalikes of really really senior respected posters....hmmm. lame if true EDIT: but then again haha kid rock-et was registered earlier. hmmm kidrock8
Give Rudy a chance! Give the nucleus on this team a chance! Rudy put this team together; he deserves the benefit of the doubt.
Man, I love Dr. Jack. He's like the wise old sage of the NBA -- he just knows basketball. Dude has been around the block, and has forgotten more about the sport than any of us will ever know. Maybe we should get Dr. Jack to talk to Rudy. DR. JACK: Dude, what's up with all the iso plays? RUDY: Ahghhh. DR. JACK: Man, mix in a few motion plays. Something. RUDY: Hakeem wouldn't like that. DR. JACK: That's phucked up, man.
