    When the ref handed Batum the ball Parsons, Bev and Harden were still talking about what to do on the play. LMAO. McFail strikes again. He MUST go.

    The fact that they weren't even ready for the play to start is beyond ridiculous.

    I really everybody on our team improves their defensive skills individually and as a team. Communication is key

    During the timeout, McHale told his guys to play defense.

    Nothing like proof positive of McHale and Co's coaching influence... most important play of the series to date and preparation is non-existent.

    McFail was like, "hey guys, great game! Let's now go and win game 7 in Houston. Oh, and by the way, DON'T FOUL!"

    Dummy.

    Won't happen with McHale still here. Dude knows nothing about defense. I don't think he even cares half the time. I wonder if he even knew who had the ball for the last play.

    it's almost better if the players just tune McHale out during the timeouts. Nothing useful ever comes of it.

    They developed bad habits ALL year long...and never fixed them.

    I wasn't even surprised or heartbroken about it. It was almost expected they would get a good shot, I was just hoping it'd be a two point shot and they'd miss it.

    Hahaha.

    McHale: "Guys, play defense ok? Play defense"

    McHale: "Play basketball guys, ok? Basketball"
