    RA had done a great job with what he has. Wasn't it Jon Barry who said it would take a good 2 years to see the true results with RA system. I hope the team gets a good deal in the TMac trade if not hold on to TMac and let the contract expire.

    HooRah! Next step is to get Yao inked for a 3 year max deal with a team option 4th year.

    Kudos to Les Alexander for making a timely show of support for Adelman, and for shooting down any potential rumors of dissent or disagreement. Great move.

    That was me. And I didn't write an article about it, just posted a link to the Blazers RealGM forum where some dude claimed to have insider info about a dispute between Adelman and Les.

    I'm personally glad thats proven to be false.

    Very happy to read this. I was worried it might not happen. Honestly at the moment I wouldn't want anyone else coaching this team. I believe RA can lead the Rockets to a title

    That's the real bombshell. The owner has been forced to choose, and he has made his choice, in a very public and decisive way. I don't think Alexander has ever before said such a thing to the press about McGrady.

    That was certainly the biggest bombshell to come out of that article. I'm glad they are finally starting to call Grady out in public. I wish a player or two would give a good sound bite as well.

    Screw that! Yao does not deserve a 1 year max deal from us, let alone more than that. Someone who is injury prone, guaranteed to miss games, and easily taken out by fronting does not deserve a max contract. If I was Morey, I would ask him to sign for about 15 mil so we can get him more help.

    Good, I think Adelman and his whole staff deserves it.

    really? :confused:

    extending rick is a no brainer, but yao is a story that will have to wait till next year to decide on.

    Good he deserves it. Hopefully he finally has a healthy roster to play with next year.
