Jeffries. And apologies to Mr. Scola for my last post. Mr. Scola needs to be on the floor, though we might want to give him a breather on some defensive sets-- if he consents.
But he used Hayes in the wrong way, he set him up to fail. Against longer taller non posting up players, he should be using Jeffries. DD
I agree with all of this but I like Miller more than you. He more than makes up for his lack of anything resembling speed with toughness, something nobody on this time currently has or seemingly has the ability to acquire.
I've always liked Rick Adelman, but his in-game adjustments have always been very slow. Sometimes you have to be able to quickly react and adapt to situations that you may not have planned for. Historically, this has been the only real flaw in Adelman's coaching style.
I know, but is this rotation situation and loyalty to the vets with Rick. He need to stop doing the same mistake over and over or we going nowhere even if we make the playoff.
I guess the coach think Ish can't stop Wall but Lowry can.... which MAYBE true...(??) on offensive size, Ish for sure >>> than CURRENT Lowry.. if lowry is injured and doesn't play well, I think we should let ish try to guide Wall..we can't score like 4 minutes at the last moment...Everyone is just standing and passing the ball to Scola and hope he makes something.. For sure we need a rotation of 8 or 9 ppl...I guess coaching is trying to try different rotations at the beginning 10 to 15 games..which may be bad for us..
Throw in Patterson and JT. IDK what they could do, but its worth a try...this is depressing. My stream was such bad quality and I fell asleep at half time and never woke up. I'm almost relieved that I did now. I watched the first half. Lowry settling for boneheaded jumpers, no rebounding, no boxing out, no aggression. I think we have the pieces but Adelman needs to know how to put his tools to better use. Lowry's back might still be sore. Maybe we just still need to wait for this team to gel. If it ain't fixed by January, this team might have to call it quits. Brooks is out and IDK about Yao, so we don't exactly have the best luck in the league. I hope someone slaps some sense into Adelman at some point. I didn't watch the second half but I saw Lowry in the first half and he was not the Lowry I knew. Having him, Hayes, and Battier on the floor at the same time sounds like instant offensive stagnation. 4th quarter doldrums.
I guess I was right again. Old Coot shouldnt have sent down Patrick Patterson to the RIO GRAND Vipers. Then he was short on his bench and had to play Battier who wouldnt have outplayed Patterson the rookie on Patricks worst night. Could have had Patterson get one or two buckets and he surpassed Battiers production already. Could have have had him in there instead of Chuck who was undersized. Needed athletes because the Wizards were outquicking us. They sent one of our only athletes to the D league and the other Hill on the bench as over and over the frontline of the Wizards scored and rebounded over short and unathletic Miller and Hayes. What stupid stupid man our coach is. Tired of these guys making decisions for the Rockets and Texans lately. The dumbest MFers to ever see a rotation ruining my favorite franchises.
