    Now the Texans just have to announce who the **** they're picking and we'll be set.

    Hate it. This could backfire as soon as some stories from Boston will get leaked. Other than that, not sure that people like him deserve a second chance.

    There are some concerns (small sample size and questionable judgment) but this is a HOME RUN hire by the Rockets.

    This also speaks well of Stone being willing to hire a coach that will not cow tail to what Stone wants.

    Udoka is an awesome hire - he will help a lot in the development of the Rockets young players.

    I am sure it will piss some off, but I am also glad that the Rockets hired a coach that the young players can relate to and look up to.

    Fantastic hire!!! My #1 preference. Stone’s make-or-break off-season starts with a win.

    Dayyyyuuummmm!!!! Nick Nurse didn’t even get his first interview and it’s already a done deal. Does this mean Harden to Houston is basically confirmed? Udoka & Beard can bond at Houston strip clubs. All kidding aside, he wasn’t my first choice purely cause of the history, but without the history he’s easily my 1st pick. So I’m okay with this. I believe in 2nd chances. I just didn’t want another unproven coach (McHale, JB, Silas)

    He will teach the kids as many lessons off the court as on. Maybe more.
