Good poll. I think we should forget about ROY and playoff stuff. The only thing Rox should consider seriously is how to build a championship team.
I pick option #1. I mean like I've said before. You can not make alot of Rockets fans happy on this BBS. We have a championship-contending organization (coaches/GM) (even though Leslie Alexander can go somewhere though)... Our players are ok. Young, not much experience playing with each other. Moochie needs confidence, even though I feel he'll be gone in the off season and we won't give him another chance. Then we have Posey, we'll resign him. Steve/Cat will stay put. Maurice/EG will stay put. Yao/Cato aren't going anywhere. And Rice will be with us next year as well. We might trade Terrance Morris if we can get something for him that'll help us (like a defensive/pass first backup shooting guard). We hope the NBA-education of Tito will speed up in the offseason and he will be set to go playing backup for Stevie. Nachbar, we hope will get in shape in the offseason and work on his defense to come in when needed. That's going to be a tough situation for Nachbar because of Posey and Rice filling up the minutes on the box score. If Nachbar can stay with us until after next year, then he will get a big chance to turn some heads and to change some opinions on what people think of him as being as mistake to be taken so early in the draft.
htownrocks3, you said that leslie alexander can go, but you say we have championship coaches? okay? yeah. whatever. what has leslie done?
homeboy (leslie) has given players like Mo T and Moochie big contracts (Rice too) for having a great year. Which will hurt is in the long run. Mo T is good but he isn't worth the amount of money and the long-term we signed him for. By the way. Im not even from Houston or Texas and I don't even live there and it seems to me that I haven't forgotten something you have. That he CHARGED everyone a few years ago on Pay-per-view to watch the Rockets in the playoffs. What kind of bullsh*t is that? It sure gave Gallery Furniture alot of business though.
Date Registered: 03-19-2003 --- yep. Your favorite poll on here since the past 9 days you've been a member. Probably so. Welcome to the BBS!
Leslie has followed through with almost every basketbal descision that has had tobe made. I can remeber specifically Matt Maloney. He was still due multi-millions from the rockets and alexander opened up his wallet and did what needed to be done so we can have the best team on the floor. Every interview and everything I have read on him has given off that attitude on what to do with this team.
If we make it to the playoffs, we will not be talking all this trash about who has got to go and this needs to be done. I think we will all just look to next year as our year.
Go to the playoffs, and try to atleast steal one game to simply have a good feel for what it takes to win in the playoffs.
Toast:- It might be considered bad if the Rockets Management becomes complaisant with the Roster and/or Les becomes complaisant with the Management or Coaches, being deluded into the state of complaisancy because they made the 8th position in the Western Conference. Thinking that all is on track and dont fix something that isn't broken!
