    Good luck Coach Turner, if you get the job, try to bring Rubio over before he hits 30.

    he coached the defense and did a pretty good job

    pretty significant loss

    I really hope we don't let up defensively

    yikes, if we don't get a really good replacement this is a pretty bad blow

    I don't understand where this keeps coming from. Each assistant plays a role in the Defense. They actually have a rotation on who handles the defense for each team. Turner did a good job but so does the rest of the staff.

    "Assistants Tom Thibodeaux and Elston Turner are often credited for their teams’ successful defensive game plans."
    "Elston (Turner, Rockets assistant coach) came up with a great game plan on what we were going to do with all their pick-and-rolls.”

    Just heard it said by broadcasters and others.

    Its still not true. They rotate.

    Thibs, however did more focused work on defense

    If true, yet another blow to the Rockets in 2009. Any chance of luring Thibs back?
