    See....I am the big picture kinda guy.

    Normally I would be thinking there is a silver lining to all this and that at the very least the coach would be on the hot seat.

    Not in this case though.

    Morey and Les love McHale and will give him a pass.

    Yeah, Harden has been a disaster so far but this is what happens when your team is not coached to run any team plays.

    Should be a very real possibility that McHale loses his job soon. The team needs a drastic change.

    McHale will be on the hot seat soon enough. You don't lose by 20 3 straight games to open the season. It doesn't happen.

    Why did Capela only play 14 minutes? Whiteside was destroying us

    Realistically, what do you think should happen that it would lead Morey to fire McHale?

    If this doesn't place McHale squarely on the hot seat, then I am almost to the point of being ready to turn on Morey. This is just insane.

    Another bad loss tomorrow oughta do it. This frankly should be enough. Losing by 20 yet again is pathetic on its own, but to lose by that much after being UP BY 21 POINTS early in the 2nd half is unbelievable.

    Nothing, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING has changed from when I started this thread WAY BACKKK

    Same **** offense. I mean how can an NBA team which is so loaded go on such draughts for prolonged periods without scoring. 26 points the whole 2nd half?

    LOL - embarrassing.

    It's the garbage offense built on Moreyball and McHale's lack of coaching expertise. All we do is jack contested 3's and when that doesn't work, players blindly run into the paint because they have been told either 3's or in the paint. Ariza drives into the paint looking clumsy, Lawson gets blocked, Harden hopes to get a foul, Brewer performs some random acrobatics

    No thought process or properly executed plays

    I doubt he's on the hot seat. Rockets have some injuries, they franchise player is playing horrible, the team couldn't do a proper preseason, we have just played 3 games...... Mi question is, when or what should happen for him to be on the hot seat?

    I love Chuck he had a very good 6 minutes of solid defense... WHY THE **** are you playing him in crunch time when he just got signed off the street this morning? What a ****ing idiot Mchale is. Had Thornton on the bench when the 4 players that werent shooting well were in the whole ****ing 3rd quarter!

    Losing by 20 three straight games to start the season should be a good start toward McHale being shown the exit. This is a horrible mess right now and the team is starting to fold. Something drastic needs to happen. Harden is checking out on the team. Possibly the head coach getting fired would wake his ass up.
