    We need a little more of Rick Adlemans offense for the playoffs and a big man as well that can shoot. Our attitude has got to change as well. We lost because they (GS) play together and we are not together:
    Several times we saw Cp3 trying to speed us up and James was barely over half court the best player cant do that we saw T-mac do that years ago. A championship teams holds each other accountable.To me the only guy thats fits that bill is PJ Tucker

    I have one of him getting stabbed in both eyes and coming back in basically blind and put up 29. Is that good enough? Oh my bad he didn’t scream and pound his chest so he doesn’t have heart right? Gtfoh with that crap.

    You can't take another player from Phoenix again. you already took danuel Houston from phoenix. Josh Jackson can stay in phoenix which is basically a g league team.

    Danuel House was a G League player who had a solid stretch for us, granted it was the regular season. Josh Jackson was a lottery pick (then again so was MK). That said, the dude has a lot of talent and if he can be had for cheap...he can potentially be like an Iggy type player. Isn't that worth taking a flyer on? No?

    There's a clip of him poking the ball away and jumping into our bench to save the loose ball (although it might have actually been out). It happened in game 6. Look it up.

    Seemed he was just saying that for effect.

    I could be wrong though.

    Man Phoenix won 19 games, and they had the worst record in the NBA.

    Not saying Jackson can't play but rockets can't be pulling players off the worst team in the league since it's bad look.

    The 60 plus losses is a pretty large enough sample size from Jackson to kind of know what to expect.

    If Harrison Barnes couldn't turn mavericks around then it couldn't be done, and Harrison led nation in scoring at North Carolina.

    At the end of the day there were doubts with this team. The way they floundered the second seed is the telling sign the gimmick approach was what would do them in. This team didn't win most nights with team basketball but rather Harden hero ball....

    It wasn't team basketball but MDA smiley boy, 'pretty boy Floyd' ball!

    MDA smiles too much kinda like Dwight Howard with all that damn smiling. Smh.

    He had Harden Super Saiyan Basketball so far up his ass he thought to do the minimum or less when it came to coaching. "We got Harden, that's all we need"

    capaela is a bench warmer and bench player anywhere besides houston.

    He sat in a rotation and that included Dwight howard.
