    It's adelman as well,Adleman did the same thing with geoff petrie who was the Top GM in the league when adelman coached the kings.Adleman attracts this atmosphere everywhere he goes.Adelman is a players coach with the ability to calm difficult personalities such as ron artest,bonzi wells,vernon maxwell,chris webber,jim jackson,jason williams,jerom kersey,just the worst of the wrost or the ones that they say are impsosible to understand or difficult to coach.

    I smell a new contender for a championship in the '07-'08 season.

    We have Francis & McGrady now. So, we essentially stole Tracy McGrady from the Orlando Magic. :) :)

    quite an addition, not sure what to make of the backcourt and rotation now. Someone's gotta be out of here soon . . .

    Wow, will he fit in the system? Will he step aside and realize that he isnt the Franchise player here anymore. If he just brings his game.....its on.

    Good move for the Rockets though.

    I feel exactly the same. This news has just made my day.

    And to respond to others who don't like this move, Steve is not the same "ball-hogging" PG anymore, he has changed.

    Cheap contract, if he doesn't work out, we can move him on.......it is a no lose situation.

    Unbelievable. I'm definitely going to embrace seeing how this works. Excitement is through the roof right now. Francis had it rough his last year here, but Adelman may use him better, plus he's not the big star anymore; it may help.
