You didn't put Mike D'Antoni on the list. Refused to play Kenneth Faried and lost all confidence in Danuel House, Jr. Doesn't play Gerald Green in Game 5 but has him out there in critical minutes of Game 6 so he can make boneheaded decisions. Watching him coach is like eating ice cream too fast, it makes your brain hurt.
Easily Capela, followed by MDA. Sucks that Harden also shrunk when it really mattered but Capela was consistently awful. You couldn’t trade Capela’s ass for Looney even if the salaries matched.
For someone who wanted to play the warriors all season long...He forgot the series started or even how to play basketball. How do you forget to make layups as a center when that's literally the only thing he was decent at?
T The fact of the matter is that Capella has absolutely no inside game on his own. He thrives only with Harden passes. Opponents figured this out and Harden to Capella plays got reduced significantly. He has length but does not have the strength to create space or box out. I blame the coach because he could have used some muscle inside like Faried or Nene (more minutes) last 2 games as Looney completely outplayed the Rockets on hustle and rebounding. Klay and Curry finished the game but Looney and Green kept it close with their hustle on both ends. D'Antoni just fails to adjust to anything.
Capela was so bad that there aren't really words to describe it. There was "shrinkage" to go around, but he set the record. I have never seen a starting player disappear to the extent he did.
