  2. admin Says:

    Yep, I think mop-girl could’ve come up with a better play there.

  3. Nakamura Says:

  4. Adam Says:

    For a gassed player. “Give Bosh the ball at the 3 pt line and make the shat!”

  5. Rick Says:

    I wish we didn’t have a timeout at the end.

  6. Tom Says:

    I cringed when we went for the 2 and a foul approach…it’s a better ‘basketball’ move, but…I knew it would come down to a Sam play.

  7. Charles Barkley Says:

    Charles on the play:

    “I don’t like this play here. because he doesn’t have an advantage over Dwight Howard. You don’t give it to a scorer unless you have an advantage…give it to a scorer who has an advantage.

    Didn’t work the first time…didn’t work the second time, Ernie.”

  8. Noxe Says:

    You drive to the fucking basket - not whip out a jump shot with 9 seconds left to work with… I really hope Bosh comes out and admits it was Smitch who drew that shit up, maybe then we can get this dumbass of a coach fired

  9. actually Says:

    Fuck Sam Mitchell.

  10. Tom Says:

    Great quote:

    “For whatever reason, we’re falling behind,” Mitchell said.

    Hmm, you.

    so guys.whos the best player on orlando,howard.2 u go at him twice.nice job sam…sam u moron how about attack orlandos WEAKEST link instead.DRAW UP A FUCKEN PLAY U RETARD BITCH.kapono and jose were our hottest shooters…..hasent sam seen that although bosh is an amazing player he’s not the guy to take that shot……we lost the game when we were up 66-62 and i said to myself.if these bastards even come close to tying it up im calling a full timeout.sam let the run go till we were down 10 before callin a timeout.SAM U ARE A DUMB MOTHERFUCKER.

    if we had a shitty orthodox coach we win.but sam is so stupid and unorthodox he loses games for us.

  12. lolerz Says:

    oh and fuck mej that bitch and sam the dumb spineless faggot for not starting jose…jose is a million times the leader tj is and only faggot ass idiots dont see that.

  13. Markandey Says:

    I knew we were gonna end our post season early when Sam Mitchell decided to give in to TJ Ford’s whining. Sam Mitchell has gotta think in a new perspective (to win) rather than his current (satisfy his players).

    How hard is to come up with a simple driving play and get bosh to drive than shoot…hahah what a retard!!! Damn I hope he gets fired and we get Isiah Thomas…

  14. Sam Mitchell Says:

    You bitches need to shut your yap I like to see coach the team and instead of whining why dont you morons come to the games and see how hard it is to win a game and delvelop Andrea at the same time. I also have to deal with players taht dont make their shots consistantly and by the way i dont say shats

  15. rj Says:

    I may be going out on a limb here but I’m starting to think you guys don’t like Sam

  16. admin Says:

    Hey Sam,

    What did Andrea have to do with that god-awful (lack of a) play at the end?

  17. Noxe Says:

    Smitch get the fuck out and go back to reading Coaching for Dummies, I want us to win at least 1 game, better yet, resign and make it easier for everyone including BC

  18. Ro Says:

    why not let draw up a play using Delfino, to get Calderon a look, i think hitting two clutch threes consecutively deserves a look. He´s the most clutch player this whole year when it comes to crunch time, remember Boston? Sam doesn’t

  19. Chutney Says:

    Sam wasn’t responsible for Bosh taking that stupid jumpshot to close the game. That decision was on Chris. But he is guilty of treating late-game possessions the same as any other play during the game, and playing out the situation so that Bosh had the opportunity to make that mistake. Its why we’re so ridiculously predictable and ineffective when a game comes down to individual possessions.

    In this instance, we went with the pick-and-roll yet again. Forget the fact that Kapono, Calderon, and even Delf at the end were shooting the ball incredibly well. Forget the fact that Bosh was fatigued from the first half and had struggled in the 2nd. And forget the fact that everyone in that arena knew he would get the ball and also that the refs had just shown in the previous possession that they were going to swallow their whistles when it came down to Bosh vs. Dwight. Apparently, Sam thinks this is an effective way to end a game.

    Mo-Pete miracle shots aside, there’s the f’in reason why we’ve been the worst closing team in the league over the past few seasons.

  20. Peter J Says:

    I don’t get why he didn’t put both TJ and Jose during last play.

    Both ball handlers, and TJ should have driven to the basket, and then there are many options.

    But calling a timeout to draw-up a 20-footer, wow, just wow.

  21. George W. Bush Says:

    and I thought that I was an idiot….

  22. John Amaechi Says:

    That play call was gayer than me.

  23. Rhys Says:

    There are few ways to distinguish a good NBA coach from a pretender. One of them is records in close games:

    2008

    7 pts or less
    8-20

    6 pts or less
    6-14

    5 pts or less
    6-12

    4 pts or less
    4-8

    Bad starts, bad finishes are death for coaches. Even though some of it falls on the players, for whatever reason, the fact is either this team isn’t prepared, ill equipped to execute or just isn’t responding to the coach.

  24. Sammo Says:

    Sam when you get fired try and coach from the bottom up and learn to be a coach. You never won as a player and your never going to win as a coach unless you pay your dues and start from the bottom. A coach is that sixth man, the one that can make something out of nothing. The coach is a person the players are willing to go through the wall for and your no coach in my eyes.

    On another point don’t we get the shit of end of the calls eh?

  25. Patrick Says:

    I still think it comes down to TJ Ford.. You can see the intensity and desire to win from Calderon and Kapono. I knew when TJ was starting we were done. The Magic can be had if you get up on them …you saw them tense up as the game tightened up. Raps may get one at home but are as good as gone. Let’s hope Colangelo does what so obviously needs to be done.

  26. Anonymous Says:

    sam mitchell is pissing the hell outta me…all his interviews at the training camp for 08/09 season he keeps acting like hes so smart and everyone else is a dumbass….if we dont fire him can someone ACCIDENTALLY break his leg so he cant coach?

  27. admin Says:

    I agree. I’ve seen some pretty smug interviews over the past week or so. Mind-boggling where this arrogant confidence comes from…
