The Spurs/Lakers game tomorrow night is going to be one of the most important games of the year for us. Going to be one hell of a game, I really expect/hope for playoff intensity.

Dash Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 (edited) Its the 2nd last game of the season and only 7 players play and Thabeet/Terrence Williams still don't get any playing time. If the Rockets are ever going to rebuild then Rick needs to loosen up and play the youngins or get the [expletive] out. Seriously we literally have nothing to play for. Anyways great game by the Rockets, without Lowry and Scola but we managed to hang on and force an overtime. It goes to show just how deep this team is. Dragic has been rock solid in his two starts and Patterson played some GREAT defense on Dirk. Edited April 12, 2011 by Dash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree with you, if you are already sitting Lowery and Scola then why not sit out Martin as well and play T Will for the rest of the year? You literally have nothing to lose playing them. I hate Adelman for this shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChosenOne Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Also there has to be something more to this TWill thing, there have been plenty of chances where he should have got PT but hasnt. I expect something to comeout over the summer on why TWill didnt ever get PT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBA.com has Scola and Lowry down with sore knees, could be the reason he's resting them but it still doesn't explain why he doesn't at least play T-Will for like 10 minutes. Morey recalled Thabeet too, why not give him some burn over Brad Miller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dash Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 To be fair Terrence Williams hasn't been all that impressive in some of the games he got time but then again Chase and Aaron Brooks were two of the worst players on the team for some time and they still got time night after night while T-Will sat trying to be patient. Also Williams' game doesn't fit the Rockets game AT ALL, I felt like we were reverting to the T-Mac days (not saying that is bad because I'd take those years over what we have now) when he was in the game because he needed the ball to be effective. I can understand why he sat but I don't get why tonight and when this makes me question Rick's future with the team and what direction we're heading. I thought we were rebuilding but the Rockets' recent streak showed that we could be a playoff team and if we're thinking playoffs next season, what better coach then Adelman? But rarely do you come across players with the potential Terrence Williams has, if that potential is going to ever be tapped then I don't Adelman is the man for the job.

htown11 Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 I was on that chat thing with Bullard during the game and asked him about the T Will siutation and he said he's a great one on one player but Rick admits he doesn't work well with four other players.... I mean I don't know what you take out of that lol but I guess what Bull was saying was he's just a bad fit for Adelmans style. Hard to say that when he hasn't gotten much of a chance but as most point out Rick has been at this for a long time, so ya possibly more to T Wills lack of PT. I am all for bringing back Adelman I think he's done a worthy job, I just think if you have no one better then it's not worth letting Rick go, it's a different story if Rick wants to retire or is approached by a better team, but you don't just let a guy like Rick go and replace him with some rookie coach. I don't really care if Hasheem plays or not lol two, three games wont make any difference for Thabeet. I think they probably want to start fresh in the off season with him and see what they can get out of him if maybe Hakeem steps in as a consultant..... Patterson was in foul trouble all night tonight, but Brad Miller was actually shooting the ball fairly decent so I can see why Adelman stuck with him this time around. I just think Hasheem is a bigger project than most think and getting him out on the court running around will not really do anything for him right now, just start fresh with the guy. T Will is another mystery by itself but again it all depends how things work out, and whose coaching next season but for now not seeing T Will or Hasheem just seems normal, I wouldn't expect anything less from Adelman finishing out with his "preferred" rotation.

How else are project players like T-Will and Hasheem supposed to improve though? I guess Hasheem can workout with Dawson and Hakeem but its a whole different experience when you're out on the court than going one-on-one with 50 year olds, not trying to bag on either of those guys because they're great trainers (Hakeem especially for what he did with Dwight) but those workouts can only do so much. Its different with Terrence because he has no one special working out with him like Thabeet and how is he going to improve in practice when like 90% of the guys aren't going all out? Like I said before, feed them to the wolves and see how it goes. Even if its just for 2 or 3 games. As for the Adelman situation, I'd LOVE to have him back but if this team doesn't make a big move in the summer (a move that would guarantee us a playoff seed) then I don't see much point in bringing him back. What exactly would another 45ish win season do for us? Morey and Les need to sit back and finally decide whether or not we're a playoff team or we're rebuilding, which basically would decide Adelman's fate in the process. The 2012 draft looks like the PERFECT time to rebuild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Spurs/Lakers game tomorrow night is going to be one of the most important games of the year for us. I honestly would be very shocked to see Spurs go all out. Like I said before, a Spurs win would be a bad thing IMO. I don't want to take the chance of LA falling to 4 and having a potential 2nd round matchup with them.
