    No bogut.
    No O'neal
    No Center
    No PF

    All he had is curry and Klay that are super young. He had that team playing defense. Meh! not my team. What exactly did they expect?

    The problems they're having is beyond that. Basically winning it all was the only thing going to possibly save him..even if the players support him.

    He and management have a few issues between them to deal with.

    + no Ezeli. He really made the most of what he did have, IMO.

    Great, great job Warriors. You are going to make a smart decision. Too bad our team named Rockets just announced we are keeping McHale :rolleyes:

    I was at Game 7 of Clippers v. Warriors. It was one of the best played NBA game 7s in recent history. Amazing shot making.

    It is crazy. I get to watch the Warriors and keep up with them, and he's legitimately better with the X's and O's than I would have ever expected. (I didn't think he was a super-smart player, I mean, over his career.) But he's amazingly good on the court, and at least in the media, he handles himself with grace and humor.

    Look what he did without Bogut in this series. He somehow helped Draymond Green believe he was almost the equivalent of Blake Griffin for a series. And that's what gets lost with this coach -- he's really maximized the performance of his players. Thompson, for example, wouldn't be where he is right now, I'm convinced, without Jackson.

    Bank on them backsliding if they go with a new coach.

    Meanwhile the Rockets have a full squad and use only 8 players every game, no one draws plays, iso and laziness everywhere. GSW wouldnt even make the playoffs with a coach like McHale.

    You're listening to Maurice Speights. The goon guy. the one who knocked Paul into the goal post on a layup and stood over him and looked at him (blatantly ignored because people were so mad at fat boy Davis)

    This guy has an issue with Chris Paul, not the team.

    Did anyone catch how Carlton Banks called for Barnes to switch on Curry and it ended up in that awkward running 3 pointer at the end? Yeah...

    With no Bogut I'm shocked the series lasted this long. If he played GS probably would have advanced
