    He should've been fired this offseason. Let's go get Mark Jackson.

    Fired or extended: whatever Harden wanted. Splitting the difference is silly.

    Not a fan of bringing in Mark Jackson. Surely there had to be some stud assistant who deserved the gig?

    do not start the season with a lame duck coach. he will lose the locker room and the team will underachieve.

    tilman is too cheap to replace him now.

    Not only is this old news, but this is flat out misleading click bait. Putting "most contentious" in quotes in the title with "Dantoni" makes it seem like it was HIM who said that.

    This means he won’t return. I think he will seek another position next year win or lose.

    I think MDA deserves a lot criticism, particularly for his handling of Melo & Faried. But the Rockets unnecessarily threw MDA under the bus this offseason. No need to embarrass the guy. MDA was COY a year ago & now you're trying to kill the guy? Unnecessary

    My dream preference was like they did fire everyone minus mike, add mark as lead assistant n calapira. Then bring in chuck hayes n battier for some assistant spots. If mike crashed we had mark in the fold


    Cause honestly I think mike a top 5 coach. Just think he needs to be heavily supplemented.

    Count me as the one guy on the planet happy with the situation.

    Want to continue coaching the Rockets? Perform your contract.

    We’ve all seen players in contract years. Time to see a coach now.

    The only negative to me is the slim possibility in the playoffs MDA makes some crazy changes in an effort to “save” his job.

    But he’s done that already.

    Nope I feel mike has the appropriate amount of fire under his seat.

    Like i.said he a good coach top 5 in the league, but u cant lose last year a game were kd went down...then not even force a game 7. That's really a fireable offense. Not counting not being about to adjust game seven up on the warriors the year before. So he deserves every bit of heat. If I was him I would take it like a man cause he should know he ****ed up

    Understandable. But you have one guy making plays 95% of the time all season, then that guys takes one shot in the last 7 minutes of game 5 without KD. The next game that same guy is passive and careless. If Harden is atleast aggressive we win game 5 & 6.

    Thread title would have been better clickbait as

    Dan Tony "the most contentious" & "not even considering contract."

    One would think: Westbrook says, “Please let him stay; I want to have one of the season of my career”.
