Maybe sit Harden for the first 2 minutes and then watch him finish 2nd to Lou Williams in 6th man of the year voting.
Well I was wrong, I thought BMAC wouldn't be able to produce off the bench. I guess it really was just playing time. 30 minutes tonight against the suns matching House. I would like to mention that Rockets got off to a slow start even with House starting. maybe he is still sick.
Start House and play BMAC with Russ when James sits. Russ will pass him the ball more, and we can use a better 3 pt shooter in when James sits.
It may just be a matter of Ben needing significant minutes as opposed to starter vs. bench. Seems like the more minutes he gets, the more comfortable he is. And he’s earned more minutes.
McLemore is the best shooter on the team in a vacuum imo. It's almost all mental with him so that's something we gotta fix. Can't afford him to go 0-8 on some nights on open 3's.
yes u can lol...i never get why people think u always gonna be on just because u a shooter lol... i always hqve to remind folks even the great curry hqs had horrible shooting nights...hell klay struggle for half tge start of tge season lqst year. it happens folks. shooter shot. hit or miss. u shot. n let the pieces fall where they may
Like when Curry didn't adjust for thicker air in a low pressure system as he said in his excuse for shooting 0-11 from the arc a couple years back...lol https://www.sbnation.com/2017/2/28/14761434/stephen-curry-stats-3-point-worst-warriors-76ers
yep it happens in sports. i sometimes feel people on this forum has never plqyed anything competive...hell even a video game. u arent gonna always be on ur gqme. hqrden hqs the right mentality. just dont let ur confidence drop. some nights u wont hqve it.
Voted for House but with BMac hitting 3s like he has been hard to keep him off the court. Think House is the better over lol player, high energy very solid D and also shorting well, weirdly the dude has a hard time staying healthy so Ben’s going to get time anyway. So far a good problem to have !
House's size, defense and rebounding is why I would keep in the starting lineup. BMac will be fine coming off of the bench. He shot well off of the bench with Sacto. I don't see why he couldn't do that here. BMac can still be a liability vs above average or elite wings defensively. I would rather start and finish games with smart and sound defense as well as having the added rebounding that House brings. BMac is better as a spark plug off of the bench, in the mold of GG. Don't worry about his shot. Just give him time to adjust. He showed it last night and I would expect that to continue.
Sounds like we are deeper than some here suggests. Tyson and Nene are still players that are positives for playoff depth too.
