    Not sure if it's Mike or Bzdelik, maybe both, but the early defensive returns have been good.

    If it's REAL, we'll likely get better in that regard too as the season progresses.


    McDaniels is HUGE if he maintains a decent 3PT%.

    Exactly... Your previous post shows your level of idiocy suggesting the crap Rockets (ranked 22nd PA) is better than the Texans who rank 5th in yards/gm and 11th pts/gm. Texans also enjoy a division lead unlike the Rockets and have won their division as recent as the previous season.


    You walked right into that one..

    MDA is a breath of fresh air, I like the passion. Still not sure about this team though. Harden and MDA are doing their jobs, the question is, did Morey do a good enough job at his? We need a few more pieces.

    All I know is that we'd probably be 0-5 under Bickerstaff. D'Antoni has been awesome! Until we get other stars or semi-stars on this roster, I'm content with a playoff seed and some entertaining ball.

    D'Antoni and the brunette seem a little steamed here ...maybe from the fire and passion?

    Kevin McHale showing some fire and passion in the first game last year. Maybe we fired his fire too soon.

    Yup, I like it. I'm an emotional coach on the sidelines myself, yelling at referees, telling my players where to move, who is open, to get that 'damn' rebound so I totally understand. You do need to keep it in check though, some players do not respond well and some told me they simply ignored me since I talk so much, it's distracting haha :)

    I did love it when I think it was Ariza who collided heads with a Cleveland player while playing defense and went to the floor. D'Antoni jumped up and was really mad looking yelling at the ref for the non-call. I liked that passion. It felt like a fan reaction.

    I'm a Rockets fan too... thanks for the great memories with that pic.

    Too bad they haven't done s*** either since then despite having 50% more seasons to do so.

    1. He doesn't have scrub talent like he did on the Knicks and no cohesion like the Lakers.
    2. He doesn't want to be unemployed.
