    Did anyone else see the look McHale gave Barea in the greeting line as the game time expired? Ha ha, now, that is respect.

    I love McHale's disposition, he's done a great job this season so far.

    Congrats to McHale. He's, objectively, so much better than last year, and it shows.

    no time for congrats, nothing to celebrate. it's only the first round. no team wins, just stay alive.

    pats on the back are left for when the season ends be it a good or bad note.

    Congrats coach. Pushed the right buttons in the fourth quarter tonight getting Bad Josh out and bringing Jones back in.

    i was calling for him to be fired after last year's collapse... i felt that way all off-season... and i still think i was right, there were better coaches available.

    i get that they wanted to use him as a recruiting tool, but after striking out i was shocked with the extension. knowing les never fired a coach (but waited for the contract to expire) i came to accept that he'll be here for 3 more years.

    i think at this point its fair to say that he's leveled up as a coach. we knew he had player management and development as strengths, and game plan and adjustments as weaknesses. what we saw in the first round was not a complete 0 in the game plan and adjustments. he found something that worked and stuck with it all series. switching on all screens worked, the 4-5 PnR worked really well (and probably should've been used more).

    i will whole heartedly congratulate him and the staff for their growth. while i thought they were a negative last season, i think they were above average this year. since we have them for 2 more years, i hope for this kind of improvement again next year and the year after!
