    Well I sure hope someone finds the damned team because what is on the floor now sucks balls.

    The Rockets go the way Harden goes. Harden was awful to start the season...primarily because he was coming off of an injury where he didn't get his work in to be ready. It's easy to blame the coach, though, because he's ultimately responsible. He's the goat. I'm not saying we all wouldn't be here saying "Fire McFail" about mid-season if we were still hovering at or around .500 but isn't that pretty much a given?

    Les and Daryl made a move because they felt they had to. And, it hasn't paid off in any way whatsoever.

    I don't believe McHale lost the team. That's easy to say when the team is playing like ass. But, it started with Harden's horrible start. And, the team follows Harden's lead always.

    If Harden was playing so terribly, isn't it the coach's responsibility to do something about it? How about play Harden less or tell him to sit out a few games to get back into game shape? He's sat James in more controversial situations (vs Clippers) so it could've been done.

    Is that realistic? What if someone tried to bench LeBron, Steph, or Kawhi?

    And terrible to end the seasons.

    Harden's March was awful

    Sure McHale is better than JBB but in the end I think this will pay off if we lure someone like JVG or Thibs.

    4-7 to start a season isn't enough of a sample size...especially since the team JUST went to the WCF and lost to a team of destiny.

    Bron and Leonard can amp up their defense if their shots aren't falling. Steph is always a threat to make 3s even if he's 2-13, so his man will never leave him.

    If Harden's shots aren't falling, he can't turn up his defense. And he's not the shooter Steph is.
