they really have been the better team for the entire series. Good ball movement, off ball screens and scoring inside out.
I didn't think we would give up a 3 at first, until I saw that tall white guy in the Rockets huddle with the clipboard in his hand. Then I realized that the tall white guy with the clipboard is not a competent or adequate enough of a coach. A competent coach would have switched everything in that situation. A competent coach would Not have had his slowest defender on the fastest most dangerous guy on the court. A competent coach knows with only .9 secs left, there is no need to guard the inbounds passer. Use Jones as an extra defender because you can't make a pass to a guy with .9 secs on the clock. You can only catch and shoot. A competent coach would have matched up with the opposing teams smaller quicker guards, therefore Bev/Lin should have been guarding Lillard/Mo. Jones should have been on the bench not Lin. Wait wait......my bad......we don't have a competent coach so yeah game over...I meant to say DAME OVER as in Lillard
I t was the same play that they were running all series. The double screen on the side with a man running to the top of of the key...open shot all series, Mchale never adjusted and for that alone should be let go.
