    I would love that. Bzdelik, Erman, cheeks, anyone known for defense. McMillan and Hornacek are not known for that.

    A fox40 whistle being blown over and over followed by yelling and screaming is going to make things better. If not, then said coach can make grown ups (players) run extra If they don’t respond to the barking of the new coach. Sounds like a plan the Rockets need to focus on because Harden and Westbrook need this to make them better.

    Harden pouting & not crossing midcourt simply because CP3 was initiating the offense cost us a crucial series, and eventually ended our season. It was a example of the crybaby culture Morey created, which got worse under MDA. Mcmillan isn't allowing any of that

    Too bad we couldn't get JVG to run our defense.

    What is he going to really do fist fight Harden? Harden is conditioned to getting his way nothing will stop that from happening. Harden knows if it isn’t happening here it will on his next team. He is correct, by the way. So McMillan or any other coach that thinks they can discipline Harden is just mistaken by the thought. I personally don’t like it but know it is not changing.

    Only the head coach has the authority to do that. If he can't, he doesn't need to be here.

    So when Lebron pouts or slacks on a play then Lebron is part of a crybaby culture that should be changed and both GM and HC should be fired?

    Same with Durant? Or Draymond?

    You are ridiculous.

    Have any of these superstars taken 1 shot in the last 8 minutes of crucial playoff game? What about 13 turnovers?

    You really should look up history of Kobe, Lebron, Kawhi, etc. before asking these questions.

    Even superstars falter.

    Faltering and quitting multiple times in crucial playoff games are 2 different things. You can also look that up

    LOL

    I can see you refuse to be reasoned with, you are obviously a Harden hater first and foremost.

    I'm not the only one who said Harden quit. The whole world saw it lol. Having a bad performance going 6-33 in a elimination game, is different than only going 2-13 with 13 turnovers and careless body language. No other superstar has had this type of effort in such crucial games

    How long have you been a Rockets fan again?

    Have you forgotten the McGrady era already?

    tmac and pippen are the only two I've ever seen flat out quit on their team.

    pippen is hated by rockets fans who also remember tmac fondly. I never quite understand how tmac gets a pass? because he was here longer? had that 13 in 33 game? sure, had more good times, but he still quit on the team all the same.

    Stone, Patrick and Silas should be on Bzdelik's doorstep right now convincing him to return.

    Bzdelik is quirky but damn sure knows his defense.

    Bzdelik is an NBA treasure. :D

    Bzdelik would be 100X better than Hornacek!
