    McHale is going to get thrashed after every loss, and after most wins too. That's just how it is here.

    You could tell they were dog tired. They couldn't execute because they've been run to death in these games. It's a combination of our offense, our tempo at times, and the amount of turnovers we've been giving up.

    McHale doesn't seem to know how to manage fatigue of these players, by spelling them at the right time. It's either that, or he doesn't trust any of his bench yet. Either way, it's on him. Once we got the no-call at the end of the fourth, it was like we mailed it in.

    Voted our dear friend Ho Chen. But really tho the combination of fatigue and the lack of calls on obvious fouls did us in. Not to mention Portland all of a sudden couldn't miss.

    I voted for Chen. Those tweeter segments just drag on and on. Plus any Comcast employee is automatically scapegoat.

    I voted Howard Chen. Give McHale and company some time to work out the kinks. That Social Media segment is unsalvageable though.

    McHale is a toolbox. The last 20 seconds before over time...you see him jump out of his seat and flail his arms without any sort of idea of what to do...


    He is not a head coach. He belongs on the bench or in the front office.
