    Rockets finish 7 games under their Expected Win-Loss record, which is bad. Very bad. Gotta wonder how long Morey can put up with the team under-achieving their statistical projections under McHale.

    Disappointing way to end the season, mchale should have called a timeout when LA started to have momentum. harden needs to stop shooting so many 3s, too many ISOs killing the clock.

    Give McHale some credit guys don't be so rough on this one game, look on the bright side, we are way ahead of schedule and we are IN the playoffs.

    lol did any of you see the whiteboard when mcfail was drawing up the play in overtime? he literally drew a single blob. finally one of the assistant coaches then jumped in and gave some options for plays to run.

    The small ball put Houston in foul trouble, and the Lin for Beverley substitution killed momentum it seemed liked to me. But thats only my perspective. Good win by the Lakers though, they fought hard and competed.

    McHale is a total joke of a coach. He was brought here to take orders from Morey. He will be gone soon. Hopefully after we get swept by OKC.

    We were dominating this game until McFail decided to go small and squander the lead.

    3rd it ! He's just not a good coach it's almost looks as if he wants to lose with his horrible substitutions and ISO ISO plays for Harden.

    Don't see why McHale didn't instruct team to foul Howard on every rebound. Harden missed giving a foul on that jump hook.

    This team needs an intellectual leader a la Battier.
