Offensive Hire

On Tuesday, the Houston Rockets hired Coach Rick Adelman. Immediately, the offensive authority discussed Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming. "I've always felt that if you can put a player in a position to be better, and they know that's happening, that's going to make the team better and they're going to buy into what you're trying to do," Adelman said. "I know that's successful, because I've done it in the past."

During his career, Adelman has accrued a 752-481 record. Adelman scored two western conference championships with the Portland Trailblazers. He also led the Sacramento Kings into a western conference final. Sacramento should have never fired Adelman. Houston hiring him is brilliant. Jeff Van Gundy was an adequate leader. Adelman is vastly superior. He will easily spearhead Houston’s resurgence.
