    Disappointed with Mike, just like in game 4 against Utah, a player is an obvious negative out there, and he still rolls with that...i understand having trust in your players, but when something is just obvuiously not working you have to reconize that.

    Tbh i also don't see Kobe or Jordan let those scrubs take a single possession out of them. James needs to demand/take the ball more when Chris can't get the job done.

    Harden is who he is. The coach should be trying to get his star player going as well.

    He should have told cp3 to give the ball up to harden.

    He keeps going with the starters when he should've gone to Nene and Shumpert more. Also, Rudy T and JVG type coaches would've huddled up and told them: this is it guys, it's yours for the taking and fired them up. MDA is more in the lines of McHale: just keep doing what you do, we'll be alright. I have said the last 1,5 to 2 years that I don't trust MDA and his offensive genius label is no longer accurate. He just doesn't coach, lets the players figure it out and clearly Harden and CP3 cannot handle that responsibility.

    Had to take 3 showers tonight. One before the game, one immediately right after the game, to wash the immensely warm golden shower of suck coaching danphonie bestowed upon us during the game.

    Adjustments matter in the playoffs. Anybody that thinks otherwise doesn't know playoff basketball. And one thing is clear...MDA does not make adjustments. He doesn't even call TOs when his team needs them. **** you MDA and **** you Jim Jackson

    I am beyond pissed right now. Not one game he has sucked in...the 5th one....

    And its not like he didn't have alternatives, Nene was playing great. He also told Faried to **** off all these other games.

    Clapping harder aint gonna do it

    He is a loser until he wins something.

    He is a tad soft though.

    Alot of you guys really dont know much about ball so when things go bad you instantly go to the coach cause thats the only thing you can think of.

    Faried should've been there!!!!!!! he probably sent everyone to hell and I wouldn't blame him!
    Harden threading needle with Capella?!?!?! he must think he's playing with Lebron James! OMG Capella...
    Now everyone knows what Capella used to do and THEY STOPPED THAT! and he can't do anything else!
    please! give this school teacher coach the big boot!!!!

    Dantoni is not a ****ing nba coach. ****ing fraud doesn’t know what he’s doin. That’s why Kerr perfected his system in one year with warriors and won a ring the first year. We’re stuck with the Flawed out dated version of SteveKerr. What a dumbass just like Morey and fertitta

    They did foul and foul the right guy. You foul Thompson or Curry and it's an automatic 2 pts for the Warriors. I didn't have any problem with their late game fouling strategy yesterday.

    MDA does not have a clue about synergy or momentum.. He would take out a player who's hot because the book says is 2 minutes before the end of the quarter... Right! like they have a bench loaded with stars just waiting for the the big moment. No street wisdom whatsoever. He's a school teacher... He needs to go back to teaching high school where he belongs.

    I think it took too long to foul but I doubt the outcome would be different.
