The team needs a coach that coaches. Period.
He regressed in the most important area of a PG: playmaking while dribbling. Back during Linsanity, Magic suggested that he'd be really good once...
Yes, indeed. The contention is, McHale cannot coach, and he doesn't, and the team is purely winning on talent. Beverley got better? McHale making...
Lin has regressed with his decision making in P&R and other half-court situations. That's weird for a young and smart player. But knowing that...
Any coach will do better than McHale. Give me even the rookies Kidd, Hornecak, Shaw. All way better.
R&R offense is a free-lancing one without structure. When D tightens up, Rockets' players are isolated into singles and forced to do one-on-one,...
So, are you suggesting that, despite being capable, McHale is just lazy in most games with no or inappropriate "adjustments"?:rolleyes:
Given the offense has been so ugly, Beverly is needed on the starters, to make the offense simpler around Harden isos.
This graph is a clear proof that McHale's team is not well prepared and easy to be figured out on D. Opp. coaches find the holes in Rox D, which...
Woodson can be a better coach than McHale! I watched the 4th q of NYK win vs. Heat. Geez, they didn't play their usual iso ball for Melo and JR...
With better talent, Karl went to the finals in Seattle. In Denver, he had Melo whose style just isn't suited for PO success. Anyways, he is still...
As you bold-faced in quoting me, Felton was just the excuse for a long due separation. And there were Byron Scott and Skiles who are also better...
Stephen Marbury did the same and has kept this line through to today. I believe he is now collaborating with some Chinese firm to do that.
McMillan was great for Blazers for quite some years. But at some point, there is a fatigue factor in the coach-team relationship that has to end...
And Byron Russell, Eisley, Vaughn were all much better in Sloan's system than later when they got better contracts elsewhere. Hornecack was also a...
Brewer was a very good player back in Utah, under Sloan. What happened to him?
Under McHale instead of Pop, TD/Manu/Parker would have not won any title at all. Not to mention the prolonged career issue.
I was instantly asking the same question, since the Rockets need a good coach much more than an avg. bench player. :rolleyes:
This is exactly the question those McHale apologists avoid to talk about. Regular season success does not necessarily transform into playoff...
Which NBA team has a worse coach than McHale? The rookie coaches Brian Shaw and Hornecack are all strictly better.
