Got it!
Oh, sure - he gets plenty of blame. I think he has made mistakes, including things in that series. We all do!
The point is that portions of all the blame belong with everyone: management, coaching and players. It's a TEAM.
In the case of the Clippers series, I'm not as angry as some because I think the Clippers are WAAAAAAAAY better. Like everyone else, I'm impatient and want the the Mavs to get better faster, but once you get to the playoffs, there's not much you can do but your best, you know? Given where both teams were at the start of the series, and the seasons they both just had, I actually think taking LAC to 7 is pretty impressive. Not enough to make us happy (understandably) but better than we probably should've expected.
I'm disappointed, too. We all got our hopes up after being up 2-0.
