I think the Rockets will take a step back this year. They are loaded with young talent but lacks winning vets.

Well... this isn't going to excite Rockets fans.

I disagree.I think he would make a decent head coach.He would not be spectacular or anything - in fact, probably not as good as Adelman - but he would be solid, which is what Houston is aiming for.

Sure go right ahead. Frank and Woodson should take you guys to the promise land!!

Just look at his last year with the Nets. Hire Mike Woodson!
