Do you see the level of effort the Rockets play with? No amount of coaching can change that.
Look at the players first, then McHale, I understand the coach is always the scapegoat

McHale's always been bad. He was bad 2 years ago, last year, and he's still bad. He was bad when they were winning and Harden was playing like an MVP. He's not why they're losing but he's still a shit coach.

I never said he was an amazing coach by any means, but right now look at the way the team plays, I mean, effort comes down to the individual, when will the players get held accountable?
Not suggesting that Kevin McHale is the be-all, end-all fall guy for it, but it is a bit fallacious to propound that he's completely inculpable for the lackadaisical effort on his team's part. Part of a coach's job
The team goes as Harden goes, IMO. Looks like they quit caring.
Call Jeff van gundy
Yeah they've had enough of him. Its over when they just flat out can't get up for games. McHale is the D'Russell of coaching.

Same team as last year, basically. Only difference is Josh Smith - Ty Lawson.

Those scrubs out there aren't giving a shit's worth of effort. The defense has been god-awful! Horrible! Absolutely ****ing atrocious! Felt like somebody was splashing acid in my eyes once Celtics got on that crazy run. I wanted to puke. Bottom line, I wanna sucker punch Harden with brass knuckles. Piece of shit looked like he doesn't give a damn out there. He looked like Isaiah Thomas' bitch.
I agree that it isn't all of McHale's fault, but he does deserve some hate. It looks like he isn't even giving the guys discipline. He's been acting like a dad who just forgave his little boy after commiting murder. McHale is way too nice, and that's a huge problem. You can't be too nice if you wanna be considered a good coach.
so being unable to motivate your players isn't the coach's fault
hmm...

Not if your main guy dates a Kardashian. That's a mission impossible for any coach.
Doesnt McHale play the way Morey wants them too?

What is he supposed to do to motivate them? Waive pom-pom's? Kevin is an enthusiastic coach. Its not likes hes sitting there in a coma.
If professionals cant muster the energy to play hard, then that team has the wrong guys on its roster.
