No Parker and Leonard goes down in Game 5. Mike has the Spurs on the ropes and the Spurs end up winning in OT. Now, no Parker or Leonard and on your home floor and the Rockets are getting beat by 30.
Unbelievable!!!!

More like a cultural mismatch. Spurs are winners and have that championship culture engrained in them. In big moments in Game 5 and on the road in Game 6, they showed why they're who they are.
Xs & Os can always be scrutinized, but its more than just the coaching. The next round won't be so kind to them.
D'Antoni basketball on the Professional level.
I didn't know it was Dantoni that made only 9 two pointers the entire game
Yep. Agree 100%.
Mike Dantoni hasn't built (and probably never will build) in 1 year what Popovich has built in 21.
Quite true. However, when you have Pop down for the count, NEVER let him back up.
Mike D'antoni didn't out coach maybe the best coach of all time ? Agregious....
Guys, still more about the "Jimmys and Joes" than the "Xs and Os", IMO. Overall talent favored the Spurs; other than Hardin, no really true standouts for the Rockets, especially with Nene out. Just wonder what will Mike and Rockets brass be looking for in the offseason in terms of the draft, free agents, etc.
fever you and eerdiotdan may want to check with Steve Kerr on that....
I'm talking about the Coach who is coaching, not the style.
Also Kerr who hasn't been coaching, has the best defensive coach in the NBA on his staff and 4 of the top 15 players in the NBA on 1 team.

you do realize MD is just starting there and all the "experts" didn't predict that Houston would do so well.
Guys Mike is a heck of a coach. He has literally impacted the way the game is played with his style.
Same way how Bill Legg impacted College Football. Problem is everyone took his style and ran with it.
And before anyone talks shit, we was running an RPO offense before it was known as such.

Not sure I understand the hate being thrown Mike's way. Especially from fellow Son's of Marshall.
Every single one of you wishes you had half the basketball knowledge and half the success that Mike has enjoyed. (Myself included)
Mike and the entire D'Antoni family have been tremendous assets to Marshall for going on 50 years.
He is one of the top coaches in the NBA , period. I for one am proud to have him representing Marshall and our state.

This is the only place in the world that would find negativity in a guy that has done what Mike has done.
There's obviously things to pick apart with him (like any other coach), but I don't understand why people find it enjoyable to pick a Marshall guy apart. Be proud of him and his positive impact on the game of basketball.
A few people on here hate the job Dan D'Antoni is doing at MU and blame Mike D'Antoni, since they are brothers and run the same systems.
I guess that explains how you got a degree.
That just shows how much you know, even about football.
While we appreciate you trying to give Legg a little credit, RichRod is considered the pioneer of the spread offense and zone read going all the way back to his Glenville days.
Of course you'll come up with anything to throw shade in Marshall's direction. I must have missed your thread about the softball team choking. #ncaabound
I didn't know he coached football too? I'd like to see he and his E Street band in concert. Love to crank "Born in the USA"
