Players fail to execute late on offense, fail to get any defensive rebounds late and fail to simply foul anyone to prevent a three-point shot. Cumulative stupidity and ineptitude = coaching failure.

Like Matt Morre said on Twitter communication with your players. You scream at them on the sidelines to foul.

Monty is about to cry

Yup, he's trying to save his own arse, and knows they are pretty much done in the playoffs. There was absolutely no one trying to foul on that last GS play of regulation. NO ONE.

Monty is just doing damage control to save his job

Well then he needs to be fired still if the players are tuning him out.

Curry has his back to the basket. You foul him with an immediate bear hug on the catch. Not hard.

bullshite, he did the same thing last game against gs in the arena. curry just missed it

Good coaches take the fall for their players. Bad coaches blame the players and lose their loyalty. Then the bad coaches get fired

I'd not buy it if we weren't so stupid to waste 10 seconds before fouling Curry in overtime. We may not have the brightest crayons on the court.

Depends on the context. I bet he was real specific about the scenario and it was not the exact scenario that played out as the players did not rush to foul like you'd expect. Seems like they had to think about it. No thought process should have been involved. This isn't the first time, we see players not fouled in a similar case. Pondexter is a smart guy with playoff experience. I don't think he would be that clueless.

What a dick he just threw his team under the bus

He did. In the timeout huddle right before the 3pt shot, he said foul them at least twice in the huddle. They didn't execute.

I'm pissed and think Monty blew this shite, but you can't tell me an NBA player doesn't know when they need to foul regardless of the situation. Take control and do it if you know you need to. We all knew it. How do they not?

AD just said Monty told them to foul

Similar thing happened in OT. Tyreke waited for a while before fouling Curry right away.
