So playing 38 minutes and then 33 minutes in the 2 games against the Clippers was being "benched". Ok when he plays Harden 20 min or less than get...
And what is wrong with going back to last season? This current season is brand new and Harden has missed several games already. In this short...
Just look at his bad games this year as well as last season. Harden will always get his minutes. McHale does not "ride the hot hand". If Lin...
In both games against the Clips Harden played solid starter minutes. Neither game did McHale bench him. That's all. As I wrote earlier, McHale...
Spot except using Mengke as an example. Nobody put the hurt on him because he rode the pine and barely saw any action except garbage time. Shaq...
Yeah Clippers games also shows McHale doesn't bench Harden and "ride the hot hand". http://espn.go.com/nba/boxscore?id=400488963 38 Minutes,...

Even if McHale was MJ and Kobe's coach, they would be top defenders. Those 2 superstars have an internal competitive fire to excel on both sides...
Jordan, Kobe, Wade are/were all excellent defenders most of their career. Harden might be the worst SG on D in the NBA today.
Howard use to be a superstar before his back problems. He may get back to superstar status if he works on his post moves. I think a sign of a...
Morey, fans, experts, everyone might think Lin is the #2 offensive option or #3rd after Howard but McHale doesn't think this way. Every stats...
I'm not going to start a new thread but this is the true story. McHale is NOT RACIST against Lin because he is Asian American. McHale just...
Actually he was playing pretty well. He came in very late in the 1st quarter and was yanked very early in the 2nd quarter. In his very limited...
