When a depleted, undertalented squad plays with this kind of effort and team attitude, you are definitely seeing good player selection and coaching. I'm more impressed with Adelman this year than I was when he had stars.
The Rockets just finished a 8-games-in-12-days schedule, and we are still above 500. The starting schedule is always tough for the Rockets. If we can continue progressing, when the Jan and Feb comes, watch out, other teams!
