2x MVP Nash. Plus Amare in his prime, Shawn Marion, Raja Bell, Barbosa, etc.

well, at least Harden will be happy. The head coach has no interest in defense either. Terrible hire.

Yeah, I think you forget how good Amare was for a few years.

It's Les's money. If he wants Mr. Pringles he gets Mr. Pringles.

It looks like Dwight will be gone. Didn't he and Dantoni fight a lot in LA?

Dwight Q&A



Great article here about Dwight. He answered very honestly.

quote:
"There were times I was disinterested because of situations that happened behind the scenes that really hurt me. It left me thinking, 'This is not what I signed up for.'''

quote:
"I felt like my role was being reduced. I went to [Rockets general manager] Daryl [Morey] and said, 'I want to be more involved.' Daryl said, 'No, we don't want you to be.' My response was, 'Why not? Why am I here?' It was shocking to me that it came from him instead of our coach. So I said to him, 'No disrespect to what you do, but you've never played the game. I've been in this game a long time. I know what it takes to be effective.'''

Doesn't sound honest to me.

Sounds like Dantoni official soon and Stephen Silas from Charlotte as the head assistant coach.

Sounds like morey wanted JVG but Leslie wanted a full on search and a focus on offense.

Probably not a bad deal for Morey.

- Les picking the coach so it's on him
- A season or two for system implementation
- Large cap space to work with and bring in shooters/players for Pringles system

I would rather have Silas as the head coach.

Ok screw Dwight.

"Then why am I here?"

TO BE AN EMPLOYEE, YOU BUM. Shut up and fall in line. Managers manage, players play.

To be fair I'm sure he was told his role would be one thing before he signed and it changed
Dan Scott

The problem with Dwight is that he thinks he's good. He's a terrible offensive player and hasn't improved. He doesn't deserve more touches. STFU and rebound and play defense is all we want from you.

you're kidding right?

Nash is a far better shooter and passer than Harden.

If Harden were on those PHX teams they would have multiple rings and Mike DAntoni would the new Phil Jackson.

So if Morey agreed with Howard that he needed to be more involved, it didn't matter than Morey never played the game?

Fk you, Dwight. No wonder Kobe thinks you're a poosy.

One of my favorite Hollins moments:


Bayless throws another pass away.

Hollins throws him to bench.

Joerger steps in between

Tayshaun Prince doesn't think its a big deal.

All of them gone now.



And my favorite youtube Hollins moment - rejecting a fan throw in

At least James Harden isn't going anywhere. A coach that will let him shoot as much as he wants, play next to no defense, and impose zero expectations of winning. Plus, no Dwight.

It's like the 2012 season all over again.

Not impressed with the hire but will try to reserve some judgment for how they round out the staff and moves that are made in free agency this Summer
