    Will Mike Dantoni survive the regular season?

    He is in trouble I think. Tonight could be the final nail in the coffin if they lose.

    I agree.

    They should be 3rd in the West, not 6th.

    He's always been a journeyman coach when you think about it.. Lakers dumped him like garbage..

    He ain't no Phil Jackson that's for sure.. He's had the star players to..

    I think he will be fine during the regular season, for the Rockets it is all about the playoffs. If they get knocked out in the first round then he is in trouble.

    agreed. i think another losing streak and he is done. last night helped some but they need to put together like a 10 game win streak now.

    Forget dantoni, he'll always have a job in the NBA if he wants it. Daryl Morey might be out of an NBA job soon

    Indeed, D'Antoni has always been a massive over-achiever in the regular season -that's his problem. Then the playoffs arrive and people expect it to continue on.

    Morey will be out of a job because China is ignoring the Rockets. They can't fire him and save face, but they can play hardball in contract negotiations. I don't see any other team picking him up.

    That's exactly right, Morey's a mathematical genius and could easily make millions in various industries but those skills don't translate to winning in the NBA

    Mathematical genius is a stretch. He values the 3pt shot and layups. D'Antoni was onto that way before him. I don't know about his qualifications but his actions suggest he's a penetrating idiot. Trading Williams/ Harrell/ Beverley for CP3 ruined their chances at a championship not to mention the embarrassment he caused his boss with the HK tweet.

    It is a player’s league. He will find work anytime he wants.
