    Why the fck would you have Tate in the game in the clutch when he's been a liability all series? Secondly why the fck would you draw a play to have reed go 1v1 against LeBron in the back court when he's a midget and can't screen the court properly

    What a utter embarrassment.

    He should be fired before the series ends. This is the most pathetic performance by a rockets team in my life

    Ime probably wants to be fired at this point. get paid for 6 years and don't have to coach through what is hopefully another rebuild

    For a series, probably, but drunk James Harden close out games are waaaaay up there in the listings not to mention the Game 7 Mavs disaster in 2005.

    Not much else to say. Easily the worst coach in the league.

    This is another dumb knee-jerk thread.

    That said, if there was ever a need for a knee-jerk thread, this could be it.

    If Tate didn’t do it, Tari would’ve . They’ve done that all season long. We just got to get smarter players.

    No words. But not sure if this is worse than the OT meltdown against Minnesota

    We had a 97.3% probability of winning with 34 seconds left in the 4th. What a fcking joke. I'm fuming

    And it wasn’t even a Reggie Miller situation. Just stupidity. Tate looked like intentionally fouled the three point shooter. WTF.

    It is probably difficult to dismiss Ime Udoka, as he just signed a four-year contract worth $28 million. Fertitta will not pay the remaining salary for nothing.
