I don't make threads. But I have to freaking say this. Alvin Gentry has done a good job with this team. Can't just arbitrarily assign credit to the players for victories and all the blame on the coaches or GM when we play poorly.
We've shown lots of guts, confidence, and skill this past month and change. Gentry has done a good job. Not perfect. He's not the greatest coach in the league...but he might be a coach of the year candidate. And rightfully so. He'll get a contract extension based on his play of late. I've lobbied for him to be fired and I was wrong. Not like we have loads of exceptional talent here. Just AD and Jrue and some decent guys around him. A team like the Rockets can't help be win. Same with the Warriors or Cavs. Just teams loaded with players.
They're playing good basketball. Not perfect. But good enough to get a playoff spot and make a go of it in a 7 game series.
