    Brooks is the main reason we were down to start with... if you keep controlling the ball and not looking for team mates you are bound to hit a couple eventually. Agree after this season they really need to look at Adelman he just seems to be a choke job come game time.. not really surprising he couldn't get the Kings to the finals now I think about it.

    I'm pretty sure my 81 year old grandmother could out-coach Mike Dunleavy.

    Same people that are complaining about Brooks play are the same people complaining after every game saying stop giving the ball to Yao down the stretch.

    This message board is bipolar.

    Yep, I've been saying that for a long time. But at least Yao isn't getting ripped on because he doesn't deserve to be.

    I wasn't really talking about your thread.

    I just decided to talk about the last play since this thread is about Rick Adelman and it would probably be brought up.

    Idiot

    It was damn near the same play as the play in Phoenix. Adelman is trying to explore different ideas. It is up to Brooks to do a better job executing it.

    I didn't say you said it.

    But since you're complaining about me not discussing the thread I will.

    I agree that it takes Rick too long to adjust when things doesn't work. He waits 4 or 5 minutes too late to make substitions when the team is clearly struggling.

    I think the only reason he hasn't started Lowry is because he just joined the team even though it is clear that maybe Lowry should start over Brooks at this point.

    Maybe we are trying to see if Brooks is the PG of the future and if he is not he will be moved this off-season.

    Well I don't really think that's a good play in Phoenix, just lucky that Shaq was a step behind. Duncan is different. I don't know if you remember the last time when we lost to Spurs, who took the last shot which and got blocked by duncan. Brooks! You never let a PG of that hight to challenge the greatest PF in NBA history at the last minute of the game.

    adleman is good coach,but not for the rox

    Yao is not the type of center who really fits adleman's system. so adleman is killing the yao. let's have a look at the games recently, how many are shots just by yao.. anyway. .adleman spent almost two seasons not to fix the problem for ball passing to YAO...

    inablity ... :)

    I agree, Ship Adelman out already. The only thing I like about him is he played the rookies and young guys over JVG. I don't like how he gives them the EXACT amount of freedom that the stars get though.

    Who else could've led this team to 3rd position in the WC with the current roster?

    Rick Adelman's a white farmboy. Loyalty means a lot to him.

    If you got a harder coach like Sam Mitchell or Mike brown in there then they wouldn't give 2 ****s about Aaron's feelings.

    Wasn't it Morey who said Brooks +/- was much better with the starters?

    Wasn't it Morey who traded our starting PG?

    Give Adelman a break. He has a choice between Brooks and a smart PG who can't shoot.

    And JVG also had a healthier T-mac and Yao at the same time.

    Rick can't say that.

    The depth RA has owns the crap out of JVG's squads.
