    Tough pill to swallow. Could be up 2-0 but we made too many mental mistakes.

    Harden was brilliant. But he should have called timeout right when the Warriors stopped him in transition.

    Should have called a time out after the rebound. That's on Mchale.

    This is like the Seahawks passing on that last play. Don't overthink it and call a GD timeout.

    He wasn't thinking. That was the problem. He wanted to drive to the hoop, but the Warriors weren't gonna let him. He needed to pull up and just shoot it. That way if you miss, you still have time to go for an offensive board or foul, send them to the line, and get the ball back. Just awful execution there.

    Heat of the moment. This is where the coach has to have the presence of mind to call a timeout and draw up a play. McHale was a spectator.

    Yes sir...we can't have him on the court with the game on the line because he is pitiful at the FT line. I'm going to say it again ...a blind person could shoot FT better than Dwight. Embarrassing....an absolute joke. There is a reason he's never won a championship.

    no to was the right call. push it and try to get something in transition. to late to call to once it was down to 2 or 3 secs.

    The Lillard 3 closed out the series. You kidding me? Lillard was worse. Pick you're ****ing face up, not over.

    I dont blame Harden on the last play. Howard put him on a tough situation where he was double teamed once he caught the pass.

    There were plenty of calls that gifted the Warriors points while denying the Rockets chances. That's what makes watching these games so frustrating.

    When Harden doesn't have the ball, this team is awful.

    Given the time run it. I agree. Maybe get a cheap one of the break. But they got back on D. Once you see you don't have an easy shot then call the damn timeout. Once you have to pass to dwight at the top there is no play. YOU CALL A GD TIMEOUT there. Fast break didn't work. CALL IT THEN
