Morey did great job building up the roster. I bet Sloan, Carlisle, Pop, Rivers or even the youngsters Matt Jackson and Hornecak may win a title...
This is only half of the truth. Take Sloan's Jazz team as example, Hornacek, Eisley and Vaughns were all talent-wise inferior to JLin, but they...
Right, but McHale just doesn't care to provide Lin with more accommodating environments he'd do to Parsons and Beverly. He just lets Lin figure it...
Lin seems to lack focus on the field. Maybe he is just too weak to handle McHale's treatment. But the game was lost in the battle of Harden vs....
There is a single factor that reconciles all these statements below: Have a right coaches (say Hornacek) who have good set plays (learned from...
Really speechless about OP's logic. How could Harden foul Ariza without extending his hands, elbow or shoulder Ariza's way?
The issue is not starting or coming off the bench per se. It's about the concept the coach imposes on the team. In recent games, maybe due to...
The coach makes the difference here. If Hornecak be the coach of Rockets, Morey may not have made these trades.
The most changes is actually they no longer make Lin stay in the corner watching for long, when he is in. Lin has only limited dribbling skill,...
Sensible. And they also seem to use more off ball screens for simple set plays.
It all depends on the coach. If the coach has many set plays that feature the off-ball movements like Sloan used to do, there is no reason why...
Coaching is the problem, not Harden's presence.
If Harden were to shoot 55.5% and score 41pt with 27 shots per game, it'd be best interest of the team to do so. Typical iso-Melo was shooting 40%...
I share your sentiment that Harden did not NEED to play so many isos. But it's lazy coaches' best excuse for not practicing more set plays, such...
Actually, Melo started to share the ball better lately which resulted in NYK's recent upwards surge in wins.
Common sense tells that we should have expected multiple screens to get a pass receiver free for those final inbounds. But nothing like that...
I was like: What are you doing there, coach? Cannot even get an inbound pass done with all the timeouts! This team won't get past the 1st round...
McHale just watched on to lose this 12 pt lead, letting his players just do isos with chaos for themselves. Great coaching!
Firing McHale first, before you start the Lowry trade. But then, it may not make much sense to trade Lin for a gamble of Lowry resigning for...
I'd say Adelman would get us at least seed #5 and 2nd round in PO. While under McHale, it's one and done in PO.
