I mean you can’t analyze like that in a vacuum . Pop hasn’t had harden the whole time . In 14-15 mchale had a better record than the spurs . Is mchale a better coach than pop ? Look , the criticism against MDA is fair until he wins a chip. He’s had some great squads , maybe gotten a bit unlucky , but the same criticisms of playing a short rotation and playing small to a fault and overly relying on one player have followed him around.
agree. its easy to judge when you watch a slow-mo. also, most players aren't sociopaths to purposefully injure someone else
I don’t think Dragic was intentionally trying to target House’s injured shoulder. However, it was a 10-point game with 32 seconds left. There’s no reason to be committing a hard foul at that point.
In my opinion, we'd have won by 20 if D'Antoni didn't opt to go small. Especially with both Olynyk and Adebayo on the floor.
It's really easy to tell which posters have & haven't played organized basketball in their past. Pickup ball with the most athletic dudes at your court is a fast paced game, let alone NBA basketball. You're not thinking anything but "stop the ball from going in the hoop" when a dude is all but 10ft away from you, running at 20MPH
