    ...and I gave him his props for having a role in that. Still doesn't mean I would anoint him as much better than "just another NBA head coach."

    It is you who seems to have this obsession that "everyone must love JVG and consider him a great, superfantastic NBA head coach." I don't. So sorry.

    Well, I'm done with this thread. It's a pretty sad indictment of our society when the Fire Gundy thread stretches longer than the TMac is Coming to Houston one (or whatever is was called). You all can hate on JVG all you want, haters. He wouldn't want it any other way.

    So when does give him props = saying Tmac is responsible for the offense? You are done, edc. The best you can hope for is a losing streak so the bandwagon can shift your way.

    It's too bad this thread became a pissing match between five posters.

    I, President of the Fire Gundy Club, am voiding all memberships and as of this moment the organization is defunct.

    Of all the idiotic threads that have been created on this forum, this one takes the cake. Houston fans don't ever seem to know what the word "patience" means.

    I admitted about 8 pages back that I thought Van Gundy changed his offensive system. Before it was just pounding it into Yao and that was not working and Grumpy needed to be called out on it.

    Van Gundy changed and I could not be more happy with it. Before me and my friends loathed watching a Rockets game. Most of the time it meant games in the sixties or seventies and we were losing. Nowadays I am getting bored in the evenings if the Rockets arent playing.

    IT IS FUN TO WATCH ROCKETS BASKETBALL AGAIN!!! :)

    Hypothetical - So R03, if you were courtside at the next home game what (if anything) would you yell at VG?

    LUV U GUNDY!!! :D


    Okay I dont love the guy yet. The Rockets are going to have to do this thing long term for me to utter that kind of madness. :eek:

    If Rockets are playing good then I usually am yelling at opposing players and coaches.

    I am making adjustments, and fully support winning, and consequently support Mr. Van Gundy.....

    I did not think it could happen and I am delighted Mr. Van Gundy proved me wrong-we can be an offensive force with him coaching.

    I do not need to worry about the guys being old.


    we are winning!

    I am Eating crow and loving life.

    Rocket Karma will prevail!

    that's a great post TBar. i was never against JVG but when the team was struggling there were some valid criticisms on this board. now, we are playing great. there is no reason to criticize JVG or the team. if you do, you are not a fan, period.

    There is fandom, and there is blind loyalty. The Jordan Bulls had things that could be criticized. The Brady Patriots have things that can be criticized. Even the championship Rockets had things that could be criticized (Sam Cassel's tendency to ballhog anyone?). These Rockets are not in the league of any of those teams.

    typo there. "Cassell," obviously. That after thinking about typing "Belichick's Patriots," and deciding I didn't know how to spell the guy's name :)

    Calling a coach out, and saying flat out he should be fired are two completely diff things.

    Brett: He's bald...
    Jules: Does he look like a b****?
    Brett: What?
    [Jules shoots Brett in shoulder]
    Jules: DOES HE LOOK LIKE A b****?
    Brett: No!
    Jules: Then why you try to **** him like a b****, Brett?
    Brett: I didn't.
    Jules: Yes you did. Yes you did, Brett. You tried to **** him. And Marcellus Wallace don't like to be ****ed by anybody, except Mrs. Wallace.
