    Looks like Morey did something about it.

    Exactly and one of them has the goal of:

    Winning every game.

    While the other one has the goal of -

    Looking out for the long term future of the franchise.

    They work together.....

    Sounds like there can be some disagreements there. The two goals don't always mesh together. The best business organizations understand this.

    Of course and Morey has to make that call when it happens......and if Les wants in.....then he gets final say of course.

    The GM doesn't always have say over the coach. Actually, I'd say it's usually the opposite. See: T., Rudy.

    True, I think honestly they sit down and discuss it and both make their cases and then come to a quorum.

    I am 100% certain the Rockets are in good hands with this management team.

    You get the quorum before you discuss, not after. But yes, they should talk about it, instead of seemingly contradicting each other through the media.

    But I doubt they were contradicting each other at all....

    It probably went down like this:

    Rick was asked the question by a reporter, they wrote the story......then sat down and talked it over and changed direction.

    Happens all the time, the media rarely gets the timeline correct.

    I can go with That.
    I still would not Make the Deal.

    at this point . .. I think you need One HEART Player and One 'cerebral' player
    Which is why IMO Yao and SF3 would go further
    than Yao and TMac

    Yao and Tmac are more Cerebral and Less likely to fight to then end
    [Yao fights more than Mac]
    SF3 Fought to the nubs of his fingers!

    I've felt that too. Stevie and Yao made a better core and got along really well. Tracy and Yao, well kinda of like oil and vinegar.

    I would rather someone who is 3/4 as talented but give 100%
    than someone
    that is uber talented but thinks they can turn it on and off at will
    and give 50% effort from time to time

    That is because you have clearly been in a team situation and seen how badly a prima donna situation brings the entire project or team down.

    And you aren't 12 years old with a keyboard.

    I think that's ultimately why Morey didn't sign Wafer and Adleman kicked him off the floor once.

    So Tracy is tired of Cameo, but we're tired of his recreation of this Commodore's hit.

    Tradey's probably more of a Klymaxx fan.
