    Have you never watched the Lakers play with Kobe? This isn't a McHale phenomenon... Last few possessions defense is tight and you spread the floor and let your superstar take over....

    But don't sit and be dishonest about the last 6 minutes being harden isos

    You are assuming that he would know that he made a mistake. Personally I don't think he is smart enough to know.

    If McFail takes completely responsibility for this loss, I will give him a pass, otherwise, he needs to start packing his bags...

    If Asik was in I could have easily seen the Mavs doing hack-an-Asik. He had already missed 7 free throws. Although his defense could have been nice. Also TRob had 2 big blocks

    You guys trashing Beverly are not being FAIR! He PLAYED CLUTCH BASKETBALL THERE. YOU SIMPLY DO NOT BENCH YOUR BACKUP PG WHEN HE IS PLAYING THAT WELL.

    I don't understand why the refs swallow their whistles during the last minute of the game. James harden got hit on both his shot attempts. Was his 3 a bad shot? Yeah, but he got fouled though.. I don't understand.

    I don't get the Robinson over Dmo thing. TRob didn't do anything so well that it justified keeping him on the floor for so many minutes.

    Just seems McHale has no patience. He would rather have somebody on the floor that is pretty much invisible rather than a guy that is aggresive but is not having a great night... unless you are a veteran of course in which case he doesn't care how badly you are playing.

    Harden was bringing the team abck in the game.

    The problem is ISO play, we ran that back to back to back and that's not enough.

    No kidding, I'm surprised so few posters mentioned it. Blew me away. He has a serious vertical. Very quick reactions, and played well defensively.

    The importance of Lin of the floor, he is a true point guard, unselfish always looking to set up his teammates.

    Harden needs to learn how to play team basketball, he is a all star- superstar 1v1 player already so it should be easy

    Why waste $50m on two guys when your coach thinks they're not good enough to get a minute in the 4th quarter. Terrible decision by Morey. Wasting money on more mediocre players.

    I was thinking, what are you doing? If you miss with 5 seconds that's less time for a second chance. :confused::confused:

    sorry to say - that 1st bench lineup does not combo well with harden for some reason.
    They seem to freeze and slow down with him.
