Surely Yao and T-Mac are the leaders of the team, but ultimately Addelman is in charge of the team, and being the coach, he should knows what works and what doesn't. The West is a tough conference, which leaves the Rox a little room for error. His team may not even make it to the playoffs if they have a bad start. Plus, Yao and Tmac have yet to win a playoffs, and without the home court it is a hugh disadvantage for the rox in playoffs. If this were true -- "Adelman himself has said he isn’t as worried about how his team played in November as much as it did in April. ", I doubt that Adelman is the right person for this job. To wait for Yao and T-mac to start the dialogue after losing 6 games is indicative what a lousy communicator and an obdurate strategist that he is. His slowness or unwillingness to make adjustments will not lead to this team to the promise land. <em>Well said! You and I agree wholeheartedly. In a season where the motto is "It's time," the Rockets don't have time to lollygag. Evidently Adelman doesn't realize how urgent things are in H-Town to advance past the first round. Otherwise, anyone can be traded except for Yao. I'm sure Adelman knew that when he signed up for the job. -- John</em> These types of conversations should be initiated and demanded by Adelman when the team is not doing well.
