Sounds like his famous last words when we were 6-2 on the way to 6-7 and 15-17. Rick, it may not be time to panic but it IS time to try something different during a game when the same rotations aren't working.
so he is blaming tmac "not getting rid of the ball quick enough when they double it"??? great. no wonder tmac cannot find any rhythm in offense. when can this person understand you cannot tell your star to give up the ball quickly every time he is doubled? the star is supposed to still score!!!
74 against Boston and now 69 against Hornets. And hoprrible 2nd hald against Boston and Hornets. This should tell something. We can't do anything inthe 2nd half, we can't shoot straight on tired legs.
tracy Mcgrady is tired...thats te reason he is going so slow and even though I think it isn't an excuse, but it does hurt our offense. Don't blame the guy because he just wants to get over the injury We need carl landry back because this guy provides energy like no other!!!! Whenever he plays, the layups missed by chuck are dunked by landry. He also rejuvinates Tmac. Luther Head needs to step up and Chuck Hayes needs to stop turning the ball over. Denver lost also so it is still ok....Common rockets im pulling for u
Try what? This team has a serious size problem now that Yao is out. Even when Landry comes back, that won't change as he's 6-7. It has been that way for a number of years now and it's finally caught up with them. I just don't see what Adelman can do to offset this problem. Playing Brooks, Head & Novak won't stop teams from exploiting our lack of size. That's something that will have to be addressed in the off season.
The fact that we were leading this game @ the half and tied @ the half during the Boston game tells me we can still do it. The fact that we fizzled out after the halfs tell me we're just running on fatigue. I think this streak has taken its toll. We need landry back and play the bench more.
this FATIGUE excuse is getting annoying. Boston played two top teams on two consecutive nights this week and beat them both (Spurs and Rockets). for the life of me I don't understand why the coach is playing the starters so many damn minutes when they are so obviously tired. In last 2 games I Notice the Celtics and NO players never break a sweat while Rocks starters are dripping sweat the entire game! the other teams are constantly and properly rotated throughout the game while Adelman keeps the starters in almost the whole time! ridiculous! Why is Adelman playing the starters so many damn minutes and why does he almost never call a timeout when they are falling behind??? damn coach is running them into the ground!!
Adelman is stupid for palying Yao so many minutes. He is stupid for playing TMAC, Scola, Battier, and Rafer so many minutes. That is a great way of burning out your players. And too much time on the floor also leads to serious INJURY. Hello?? that is why I say: Adelman = an idiot.
I do have a great life outside of basketball. I think the people who have no life are those who think it's necessary to comment on my emotional state. Yes, I am looking at you when I said that.
Well technically Cyber Boy, you're not looking at him because you are on the computer. You do know that when you talk to people on the interntet, that doesn't constitute a life outside of basketball right? Muuhahahah
The point is, when you have a capable backup like Mutombo, there is no reason to play your starter until his foot grinds off.
