Says McMahon is a good basketball coach.
He may be a good developer of players but as an in game coach he leaves a lot to be desired. He never seems to call a timeout at the appropriate time. For instance, when we have a nice lead with three minutes left and we start fouling which kills the clock, take quick threes which result in long rebounds and runout for the other team and then start to turnover the ball. We also have a hard time getting the ball in bounds and getting over half court in the face of a press.
We take way too many threes and the wrong people take them. Ward should have plays which set up his threes. How many picks have we ever set for him? Williams should be driving and kicking back to Ward, Wright or one of the other guys instead of dribbling around and taking the threes himself.

Man, it's funny how we all can watch the same coach and have so many different opinions, up until about 3 weeks ago I was wondering if any of our players would ever develop under CMM and was very concerned about that more than anything.

Finally Ward is beginning to develop a bit and until Saturday (Reid I'm still waiting) looked like we had all of a sudden found a way to rebound and play a bit tougher, a huge weakness before that under CMM.

But before that I was very concern about development both individually and collectively - and hoping the recent glimmer means maybe he can develop something. And that's my hope.
