this team is really really good but we just have a dumbass and clueless coach.A couple of the starters should come off the bench. What does it take for him change it? My suggestion: Lowry Bud Ariza Scola Hayes
i dont get the question...i thought it was obvious tmac and yao are suppose to be our two best? Tmac may not be that guy anymore, but in theory, that's his role/place on the team. Is he suppose to ignore the 20 something mill tmac takes up and pretend it doesnt exist until he's traded?
Riiiiiight. Candidate for coach of the year, as per 10 days ago. Let's compare his NBA resume to yours. Wait, why am I posting in GARM? Oh, to give this thread 1 star again!
How rude of you to speak to your Clutch Fans brother this way ! Standards Please! Every member has the right to post their opinion, including you! By the way he was making a very valid point in his posting!
I'm sorry but Adelman sounded like an absolute fool saying something like this. Tmac is home only because you refused to play him. Don't give us that excuse now.
I disagree. He is coming off of an injury, you throw him out there to showcase his skills, does he still got it or not. To see how determined Tracy was i think would have upped his trade value instead of giving him freakin 7 minutes a game for 5 games lol.
ironic because this idiot of a coach should have thought of it before he BENCHED AND REFUSED TO PLAY his best talented player out there who was CLEARLY healthy and able to play rick the slick is trying to protect his behind with the excuse making that is all. watch things sour and him bringing out the we are without our two best players excuse when the questions get tough mcgrady was YOUR choice rick and no one elses! even morey assumed you would play mcgrady more min but YOU and only YOU made his min a problem for the team and orgnization
I'd really like to believe that, I really would. I just can't help but notice at the time, we couldn't give McGrady more minutes because JT/Budinger/Ariza/Battier were all in the rotation. BUT, as soon as McGrady was out of the picture, suddenly JT didnt need playing time anymore. Seemed like an excuse and I think the whole situation is costing the team right now.
It was a stupid question. It was obviously a robotic answer. I wouldn't read too much into it. For those that are hot and cold on rick and morey, just remember the big picture. There's no reason to change our opinions on tracy after each loss. Streaks are a part of the season and our expectations shouldn't change on this year. We shouldn't get too high after wins and too low after losses.
The problem for me is they're paying millions to him to do what exactly? Any other business that would pay such a large % of their budget for inaction would be taken to task. Why isn't it the case with the Rockets? Should have played him or traded him by now. On top of that you bet on unproven commodities that appear to have peaked and now are receding.
To be honest, I see no reason to play him even if we don't trade him. We would just be tanking it no?
sorry but that makes no sense.. he's not a foreigner or a rookie. Teams know more or less what his skills and strengths are. They also know there's almost no chance of him returning to 100%. They also know he is a FA this summer. that means a young team won't want him for anything but his contract., but would be more willing to give up talent. No reason to showcase him then as it adds almost nothing. And an older team, a contender, may want him for his contract AND to help this year, but they're less likely to give up talent unless A) you give talent back or B) tmac is close to 100% Morey doesnt want to give up more talent and tmac isn't getting back to 100%. So the best move is to not let the team know exactly where tmac is at AND at the same time it keeps him from getting injured. A failed showcase and/or injury to tmac kills any deal with a veteran team. morey's making the right move, let's just wait and see what happens..
