    ISO TOs are worst since your team cannot get back to defend.

    lol did you see his cheeky grin at the end of the game? didn't give McHale a "good game" or a friendly gesture, just grinned and walked away.

    Lin needs at least 4 TOs to get the team a win.

    Apparantly not with the Rockets. Me thinks they get attached emotionally to coaches and don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, like McNair. But maybe with the mentality of management like Brooklyn, New York or Minnesota it would happen.

    This is what Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor said when they let McHale go.

    “This decision was made with the best interests of the Minnesota Timberwolves in mind”

    It's not the coaches interests, it's all about the potential future success of the TEAM and organization.

    This game is first on Mchale. Then on Parsons for his stupid TO's that directly led to Gallinari's 3's, and James Harden again for turning it over when we were on a run. Good job Good effort Guys.

    Coaches got the credit in Utah win and coaches should take the credit for this loss.

    Why ran the PG plays through Harden (6 TOs) when he struggled so much?
    Ask Lin to be the PG and pass it to Harden or others.
    Why is this so difficult to comprehend?

    Why made Harden look bad when he didn't have it tonight?

    There is a difference between getting ripped near the arc, and missing a pass deep in the paint -- one leads to easy layup, the other does not.

    Ah no, people are blaming McHale's substitution pattern.

    Not sure what game you were watching but Harden seemed to play almost the entire 4th quarter?

    ?? what are you talking about? The worst TO's are bad passes that lead to a breakaway dunk. Any stats to back up your assertion?

    This is when you don't have your PG doing is PG duty. I'd rather see have 6 TOs and the team less than 10 TOs total...versus spreading the wealth of 20+ TOs to all the players. A lot of those TOs lead to easy fastbreak points for Denver.

    I agree with you, but what I'm saying is that I'd rather have Lin with teh majority of the TOs becuase that means we're not always forcing hero ball through Harden. WHen Harden and Lin get a their tandem flow going the Rockets are unstoppable. The ball movement is good and the team is playing good ball. TOs are ugly no matter what, but having Lin commmit the majority means their playing like team as opposed to HERO ball with the occasional dump off by Harden.

    Funny thing is Lin wouldn't care because Rox would win.

    Gawd let lin be PG Parsons is a good cutter he cannot ISO. Jeez Lin has best handles in the whole team but don't let him play make and penetrate, thanks McHale.

    Srsly I don't even blame Harden/Parsons/Asik. I blame McHale, but the thing is, I am probably wrong about this, this rotation stinks greatly of Sampson's meddling.
