Rockets and Chris Finch have parted ways

Should have kept Nick Nurse instead, he was the better coach.

 

Don't feel bad. I just got it reading your post.

 

I always thought he was the most prepared coach of the three, and suspect that the season could have gone different if he had taken the team instead of mediocre JB. Good luck for him.

 

It's been a long day without you my friend, and I'll tell you all about it when I see you again

 

Not sure what to feel. I always thought that if he were as good as advertised, that we wouldn't devolve into isolation plays at the end of every game. But coaches seem to think he's legit when speaking about him.

 

I always preferred Nick Nurse to Finch. He wore glasses, a goatee and occasionally a red sport coat.

 

Duh...anyone part of the Mchale regime should be gone.

 

No, that would be Morey.

 

And Les.

 

I watched this 5 times, once for each awesome band photo. The last one was classic.

 

He was groomed to death

 

When players devolve and blow the offense, no coach can stop it. Even D'Antoni said it happened to him in New York.

 

Seriously, I don't know who this is.

 

"Offensive coordinator" for the Rockets.

 

I suspect that he was the head coach in training, but McHale probably recommended his timberwolves connection JB and then we went and hired MDA, so that was the end for Finch. He probably wanted out

 

I wish him well, but I was never impressed.

 

He was here before McHale.

 

Don't think he deserves to be berated like this.

Seems like a good guy who gave all to the organization.

Best of luck to you Mr. Finch

 

what if Finch was the real person holding us back

 

Adelman left because Morey forced Finch to be his assistant coach, and Adelman wanted to choose his own staff.

That is why he left to Minnesota....

It was not a smart move to force an assistant onto a Hall of Fame caliber coach like Adelman.
