Don't think McHale was the real problem
Players gave up on him, especially Harden
Similar to Blatt.
Why is the media making McHale such a big sympathetic figure in all this?

The staff he left behind is still there. They were the real coachesDon't think McHale was the real problem
We only have one guy who can create off the dribble* (and who can get pretty sloppy over dribbling and settling for bad shots) surrounded by a bunch of limited 3 & D guys, a pf who's always hurt, another who's just a waste of space, we brought back the idiot, and the 'star' big man who's not a scoring post presence as much as he is a ball movement beneficiary (oops and dunks once the defense is spread thin). Which makes a conflict b/c our 3&d guys need him to facilitate easy shots for them.. not the other way around. So in other words, we don't have a reliable post presence to settle things down; we don't have the appropriate role players, system or team iq (or all three, idk) to compensate with reliable play making*; and so we over-rely on our 2 guard... which leads to isolation plays by him and everyone chuckin up 3s.
None of these issues are new but the magic in the effort, energy, focus, great shooting or whatever from last year just isn't here now on a nightly basis.
*I dunno what happened to our short term alcoholic point guard, he was supposed to be the 2nd creator to help ease the gap in play making but it just never worked out.

Not until we hire the new coach and go through free agency
@who_better_than_me I'm tired of you ducking this shyt only to throw sneak disses when y'all notch up meaningless wins.

Time to go!!
The irony. You only up this shyt when we go on a fukking losing streak. You more opportunistic than ric flair. I see you@who_better_than_me I'm tired of you ducking this shyt only to throw sneak disses when y'all notch up meaningless wins.
Surely you're not this slow?
Because the PROBLEMS are still there. The wins (only ONE more) don't detract away from all the problems with y'all squad. Y'all have a 27-26 record. How the fukk can you not see this? Y'all dudes don't even have a good enough record to be in the playoffs in the East - yet you want to blame McHale for all this.
@DonKnock doing his usual "dap" act - but even he would agree that the problems are still there - even with McHale long gone.

Y'all are legitimate trash. You were supposed to be title contenders and you're just outright not even remotely close.
People wanted to say that Warriors got lucky last year cause of the injuries when in reality it was the Rockets. Rockets benefited from Leonard missing time, allowing Spurs to lose some games mid-season that gave the Rockets enough of an edge to get the 2nd seed(plus that final loss Spurs took). Rockets benefited from Thunder being injured all season, which stopped them from getting that 2nd seed.
This team really ain't shyt.
The denial is hilarious.

Answer the question.
Are most, if not all the problems still there with this Rockets team, as there was with McHale at the start of the season?

Then why are they still playing like they did under McHale at the start of the season? Why are they still having the same problems on offense? Why are they still having the same problems on defense? Why are they still have the same problems with not executing plays? Why are they still having the same issues with effort? Why are they still having issues with players not playing well together? Why are they still having the same issues with mental lapses? Why are they still having issues with consistent performances?No
Problem was they didn't listen to the coach. That problem is gone.
