please tell me someone saw charles blank on inside the nba tonight. he was talking about who is fav coach is and who is the best, he says phil jackson is the best, pop is the second, and sloan is his favorite. then he goes "and also, i wanna give a shout out to...."(pauses for like 5 seconds, then whispers) "what's the coaches name in houston?" hilarious did say that once we got the news yao was out for the year we turned it on and have been "ballin"
almost died laughing when I saw it. they also showed Lowry's twitter. good stuff. love the tnt overtime show with Chuck, Kenny, EJ, and Chris.
I saw the show....Duh moment for Barkley LOL. Good to see Adelman and Rox getting some praise for being a below 500 team!
Omg, I was LMAO when they showed Kyle's tweet after Chuck's typical Chuck moment! Bahaha! And of course YAY for props to Adelman and our guys! I was a proud fan when Chuck said we fight hard night in and night out.
Brooks got most improved because we traded away Rafer and gave Brooks the starting role so his stats went up. I frankly think he's more experienced but he STILL has many of the same problems he did as a rookie - and that's very disturbing for a third year player. Head is still in the league by the way. But again, it's silly compare Rafer and Head to someone of Brooks talent. From the first game I saw him in I knew Brooks would be gold. Right now he's silver. That's a disappointment. Head and Rafer were always scrubs. JVG squeezed the most he could out of him. We have much much better players than we ever had. I credit Morey with that. Not Adelman.
Why don't you go troll a T-mac thread or something. Or maybe tell anyone who hasn't been on this board since 1999 that they aren't real Rockets fan. Those are the two things you're good at.
All of those guys also got old. If Adelman was some magic miracle worker he would have brought them back. He's not. Shane Battier isn't having his best years nor is he rejuvenated under Adelman. Chuck Hayes is playing better offensively, but the heck turned him into what he was and gave him a fighting chance? Why it's JVG. The only two guys on this team who play fundamentally sound Defense are Chuck Hayes and Shane Battier. Heck, you could throw Jared Jeffries in there but Adelman won't even let him on the court which is just a complete Travesty considering how awful we are in the paint. Why on earth would you not put Jared Jeffries in against the the Heat? Mind boggling, absolutely mind boggling. I have been patience with Adelman over the years, but enough is enough. How many times do I have to what Kmart travel in a game on very very basic things like off a pass. How many guys travel catching the ball on the perimeter and driving? Martin does it 3 or 4 times a game and gets called at least once on it. That's rookie stuff. And brooks is way out of control. It's ridiculous. Adelman doesn't know how to get guys to commit - there's no discipline on the team and one time we play hard because it's the Heat and then we suck it up against weaker teams and squeek by. Thats the mark of a talented team that is also a poorly coached team
this is still a stupid argument. those players on the Van Gundy squad are the people HE WANTED! why the hell do you think ex-knicks likes charles oakley or marc jackson shows up on the Rockets? And Rick the Ruler (RA =Rafer Alston or RA the sun god) did MORE with JVG's cast, look how bad Rafer was before Rick. Oh we also won a playoff series. Charles Barkley and crew even gave Rick the Ruler some props tonight. RICK THE RULER b****ES, GIVE HIM RESPECT OR PROTECT YA NECK!
Webber also mentioned Vernon Maxwell. "you need bad guys on your team or guys who aren't the nicest, the Vernon Maxwells" PROPS TO WEBBER.
Oh please. You think JVG had much of a choice? Who else could he get with vet min contracts? You do realize we have absolutely no cash. And JVG wasn't GM. Rick did more with JVG's cast? Are you kidding? So JVG has Artest, scola, brooks, lowry, and landry? Keep drinking the kool aid buddy.
How many playoff series did we win with JVG? Why did he get fired then? Who's better coach in NBA history? JVG or Rick Adelman? RICK THE RULER WALKS ALL OVER JVG. Keep singing that Ladidadi dude
You must have been a cheerleader because you got a loud mouth and some colorful pom poms. But you're regurgitating non-sense. JVG actually has a higher winning percentage than RA, and JVG's been to the final's too. He's been known to do more with less, RA has been known to do less with more. Any coach that can't get past the first round against Portland with Yao Ming, Brooks, Scola, Artest, and Landry doesn't deserve to be coaching. Heck, you could get that group past Portland. And JVG got fired because his offense wasn't pretty. We swapped hard work and tenacitous effort with a golden state style offense and right now we look more like Golden State than any contender. Guess how my championships RA style offensives have won? Zero. And that's why Rick, who's been coaching since you were an egg and a sperm, hasn't won a single ring in his ENTIRE career.
