Rockets are playing like D-league scrubs meanwhile OKC looks like worldbeaters. 2 games ago Durant and Westbrook combined to score 91 points. The Rockets TEAM is averaging 88.7 ppg for the SEASON
God I hate his "meh" attitude! You will never see another great player make comments like this. Does he know his team set an NBA record getting blown out 3 straight games by 20 freaking points, does he realize he's shooting 22% from the field and 9% from deep. Is guy for real? Is he completely oblivious as to how ****ty he's been on offense? Not to mention he's basically a sieve on defense.
dwight looked terrible against GS. it might take him 6 weeks just to get into playing shape. if he doesn't go out with an injury first.
Is Capela injured? How could McHale not have put him back in along with Harrell? What was he thinking?
He pretty much said Dwight needs to figure out what he's gonna do. He said missing games is not gonna work for building chemistry
Just because a coach doesn't hold you responsible, doesn't mean you should let yourself off the hook. That is just lack of character, integrity, self-respect.
So Dwight is 29 and being kept out of back to backs. Dwight has the highest salary on the team and will miss many games. Why would an organization baby a player so much? He's over payed for what he does yet they continue to treat him like a brittle piece of glass. If he can't perform like other NBA players they need to figure out what to do with him.
I agree, but some players aren't wired that way. Some need a coach to guide them(or occasionally ride them) and mold them into a better player. Harden acts like a guy who gets down on himself if things aren't going his way and McHale is the polar opposite of what he needs when that happens. That's actually the biggest reason I want McHale gone. Forget about the losses. We're squandering the prime of a very special player.
So who's the player on the Rockets who rallies the team together and tells them to get their heads out of their arses?
