Default *Official fire Van Gundy thread* (I went there)

If you want Jeffy boy out of Houston, state your case.

Ran Stevie Franchise out of Houston.
Doesn't let T-Mac play his game.
Didn't get the right players to support the Dynamic Duo (Yao needs help!)
Wins/loses by the three, but when they aren't falling, he doesn't abandon.

And he looks WAY too much like Charlie Chaplin!

Yao needs to go, trade him for the 1st pick and take Durant or Oden. He is way to slow and clumsy.

Yao is good but he is too slow. I dont think it would be wise to trade him, he hasnt been in the league very long and has alot to learn. And I thought, Steve Fancis was traded in a deal for T-Mac, not ran off. + T-Mac is better.

I would definitely would not trade Yao, but would try to get a strong power forward to pound the paint. We just need more support jizz wasnt worried about leaving a man open because the Rockets shot less than 40% thru out the series.

Yao is good but no team he plays on will ever win a championship. He is too easy to defend over a 7 game series, he becomes very predictable and gives in to taking fade away jump shots. Rockets need someone quick and aggresive that can score off the glass and gbo around/over people.

Boozer abused the Rockets but hopefully management will see that they need a player like that. Yao can stay but they need a real PF.

lmao. I dont htink anyone would trade their 1st or 2nd pic for yao. I would take kevin durant over yao any day. And I think most agree. You had some wishful thinking, but its not going to happen.

If this is your #1 reason why JVG needs to be fired... you're a dumbass.

Maybe you could enlighten us as to who else is out there that is better and that would take his spot?

He just has alot to learn, I still dont think his game is up to star level, but I think he will get there, just needs some good coaches and more experience.

Yao is a sorry bastard......tallest guy in the NBA and cant do **** under the basket. He's too soft and he's had enough time to bulk up! He can't even hold on to the freakin ball with those monster hands of his!!! I think we should trade his sorry *** and use the money wisely. Just my opinion......

I honestly do not think we should dump Yao. I suppose I am the only one who feels this way.

I like Van Gundy. I like Yao, T-Mac, and Battier. The is room for improvement past that.
We need someone else who is dangerous from the perimeter.

GET RID OF RAFFER or sit him down in the Bench, can we please get a Chris Paul, because Williams showed us what a true point guard is.

His contract ends today, lets fire a guy that isn't with the team after todays meetings anyways eh. Anyone look into this stuff before talking?

Stevie Franchise played himself out of Orlando and out of the league for a portion of the season. That guy and his turnovers couldn't have been traded soon enough.

T-Mac is giving free regin to take any shot he wants, why you think were all in total shock at half the **** that he throws up there, very restricting.

Rockets have a GM, he's also involved with the picks.

I remember two championships that we lived by the three.

Haha, no. Yao just needs to grow some *****. He is way too soft. He needs to get pissed off and be more agressive. If he was agressive and powerful he would be an amazing player.
