    McHale taught Harden how to control himself by holding himself accountable. Kudos to McHale.

    I would like to contribute to this thread.

    Greg Popvich needs to either grow it or shave it.

    That halfway cha-cha-cha-chia thing on his head is highly inappropriate for national TV, especially on Christmas.

    Little knowledge and no understanding. That describes you. Don't disagree with your betters. McHale is a good coach and soon may be a great coach. How many teams are going to win 2 in San Antonio?

    I really think it was that this Rocket team finally know their roles, and when to use howard and when to rely on Harden for scoring.

    First get Parsons and Howard going...use Lin as a PG and let him set the offense before the opposing defense gets set, and then let Harden play off the ball or as a relief valve for Lin early.

    And then Use Harden pick and roll's and let him just attack the rim

    I'm not ready to anoint McHale the next great coach just yet. Like I said in the game thread, the Rox are simply a horrible match up for the Spurs. Our front line is too much for them.

    pure speculation, if that's true and it's all he had to do, then he should have done it a long time ago buddy, lol.

    Exactly! It seems he just got out of the way and James pretty much saved us, they were making a run and Dwight was about to foul out.

    It takes time for a student to learn his lessons. McHale is a Hall of Famer because of his great moves and self-control. He is teaching Dwight, Harden, Lin, Parsons, etc. and they are getting gradually better every day.

    I give credit to Mchale for finally realizing Lin and Harden can mesh on the floor together and staring Lin over Beverly. Beverly is better coming off the bench. Kudos McHale.

    Mchale has some good qualities and some bad. I'm leaning towards wanting another coach though, but I'll reserve judgment until the play offs to see how this team plays.

    I want to see smarter plays, this is the first time I actually saw them run a damn play to get Dwight the ball.
