I think McHale's very limited success with the current ballclub is more a reflection of how poor a coach Wittman was. The standard was set so low that when McHale showed any success, he looked stunning. Hasn’t every coach had at least one good run.

Kevin has, to say the least, gotten fat at the expense of Minny fans for 15 years. Just because he's a great guy doesn't mean he deserves $2m to coach a lousy team that HE made lousy in the first place. Those players who support him lost 2/3s of their games. Who cares what they think. They need a coach that can push them harder...maybe they know they wouldn't have to work under Kevin. Mark Madsen? Didn't Kev overpay this loser in the first place?

He should've been banished right then and there. Sam Cassell AND a draft pick for Marko Jaric. He should’ve been banished right then and there.

He could do wonders for Roy Hibbert, and help Granger develop a post game. I’d love to see McHale wind up on the Pacers staff, potentially as a replacement for Jim O’Brien after next season.
