I'll just leave this here: "It was a learning experience," said Carter, who will see McHale and the Timberwolves on Wednesday at the Pepsi Center. "He didn't really know all the X's and O's, but he had a good assistant coaching staff that was helping him out with a lot of plays. He kind of let us run whatever we wanted. "He was trying to draw plays, and it was like a little Etch and Sketch. Like a kid just messing around. ... He just gave the clipboard to the assistant coaches sometimes."
You just said it, he was important in the playoff. Without Asik's defense, we probably would've lost in 4. We didn't trade him because we weren't getting enough in return, especially when we have no replacement for a backup C. IMHO, I can't blame Morey for the Asik & Lin signing, I think they were needed at the time. Sure, it looks bad now, but that is in hindsight, I do think McHale needs to go. And if Morey doesn't make it happen, it is on him. He'll also need to work his magic to resolve the Asik/Lin situation. I give Morey a 2yr leash, if we don't make it to Western Conf finals in 2 year, I won't object his firing. I still belive in Morey, at least for now.
