I think I have figured out the reason McHale is irritated with not just
Jeremy Lin but with any starting point guard he’s had (Lowry and Dragic are
recent examples).
McHale played a summer for Bobby Knight who is the master of the motion
offense. Like Mike Woodson who also played for Knight at Indiana, McHale
believes a point guard should be making quick decisions and not pound the
ball dribbling selfishly.
To these Knight disciples, most NBA point guards including Lowry, Dragic,
and Lin appear to be selfishly overdribbling and stalling. McHale wants to
see the basketball pinging from player to player like a pinball arcade, and
Mike Woodson actually does too. Star point guards like Jeremy Lin bottle up
that flow, especially since a guy like James Harden normally makes seemingly
fast decisions within the offensive flow. I make this statement about
McHale because years ago I heard him say about the Timberwolves “A point
guard’s job is simply to get the ball upcourt and then get into the offense
”. Very Knightlike, indeed.
Here’s the problem. Bobby Knight coached in COLLEGE where opponents were
simply not talented enough to stop his motion scheme. In the NBA where
athletes are bigger and better and scouted, any kind of motion scheme can be
stopped by a good team defense. Thus the NBA relies on its isolation
scorers, particularly those that appear to “bog down” offenses by probing
defenses for the best shot.
Jeremy Lin WANTS to zing the ball around the perimeter, but he CAN’T
against these sophisticated NBA defenses with phenomenal athletes trapping
him with as many as five players. McHale loves both Beverley and Douglas
because they keep the motion going, but they don’t get trapped as hard as
Lin nor do they produce Lin’s results.
What about McHale’s years as a Celtic? Well, Red Auerbach himself was the
main proponent of the motion offense. Auerbach himself won championships as
a coach preaching speed. But McHale’s championship coaches were actually
Bill Fitch and KC Jones, both of them being star PRO isolation coaches who
played both uptempo and slowdown ball. McHale has forgotten the quality
slowdown coaching that Fitch and Jones did.
Jeremy Lin is justifiably frustrated with McHale. On the other hand, Les
Alexander seems to have handed down the edict that Lin PLAYS because Lin is
the main guy that wins games. Lin is doing a fine job despite McHale’s
overinsistence on the motion scheme. | e********3
