I don't think he should be fired, but I think he needs to bring in new assistants and install a new offense; or somehow cajole/threaten/force his players into running the current one correctly if that is the problem, or resign and find somebody who can.
ARC He was a good, never great, coach in the pre-zone NBA. Has never adjusted to it and I fear he never will.
you know, it's funny. out of all the PRC people, i have never seen one say that they enjoy the style of basketball the rockets play. yet you want to keep rudy. quote for the day: "people often are afraid of change because they overvalue what they have and undervalue what they can gain."
I am for Rudy T. He must take back control of the team away from Francis and act like a Head Coach for a change. Any player that rerfuses to obay his direction should be traded, including Yao Ming!
PRC let him coach 1 more season, then give him an office job and bring someone with more x's and o's type mentality.
ARC Rudy came up with winning scheme during the championship years and he's still trying to do it . Adapt or become extinct
I am not Pro Rudy or Anti Rudy. I just want our team to display better offense with more motion, cutting, passing and movememnt on the weakside. If Rudy can do this for us next year then I am all for Rudy. But if he can't then perhaps we need to move on. I like Rudy and wish it would work out for him in Houston but on the same token if he can't get this team to improve then we need to move on. If Rudy stays, "significant" offensive progress needs to be made next year and more players need to be leaning towards the overachieving label rather than underachieving.
At least spell your party's name right. BTW, aren't the ARC people required to admit that they are stupid before they state their position? I am with PRC simply because I don't want to say I'm stupid.
Damn, I thought this was going to be The Professional Rodeo Circuit vs Animal Rights Conservationists. There would have been more fist fights. I'm creating my own party, Its the "Members Focused on the Extermination of Rudy" So anyone wanna be an MFER ?
Haha, Seriously, this idea of keeping Rudy around because of 8 year old championships is going to make me pull my hair out. It's a ridiculous excuse.
PRC Because if the Houston Lakers w/PhilJackson or the Houston Knicksw/J VanGundy moved into the new Downtown Arena..I would still rather go to the Summit/CpC and stay with the Rockets and RudyT. I am not ready to bail out on this team..and dont expect I ever will.
1. PRC 2. This team would have been playoff-bound if Rudy hadn't gotten sick, and there isn't anyone out there (that we can get) that I think is better than Rudy.
