    PJ Tucker and Eric Gordon combined to shoot 11-15 from three tonight.

    I don’t expect insane eye popping numbers like that every game.

    We’re going to need three pointers.

    Will Dan Tony play Road Ryno? Dude needs an injection of confidence and he could be useful.

    Maybe James Harden should personally call him.

    We should. Rather see Ryno than Luc. Ryno hold his own vs GSW 9/10. Luc cannot play again, unless he hits 80 layups with contact on practice.

    I liked the short rotations but I do think Luc and Ryno can still provide value in this series. The problem is there is really no margin for error.. If Ryno comes in refusing to shoot and Luc keeps blowing point blank shots then I would say that MDA should refrain from playing them.

    Gerald becomes the replacement for them in this case, by default, I hope.

    i don tthink we can beat them w/o ryan. maybe luc, but ryan is much more valuable with pj or luc in there.
    not only cuz of his offense, but ariza doesnt have to play 40mpg guarding the best wing scorer. pj can help with that, but instead he's playing pf.

    at least eg finally showed up.

    Ryno is starting to look like the biggest waste of money in history. I used to think we need him to spread vthe floor but here lately he is not even looking for his shot. I wish he would turn it on.

    Did you see him in garbage time last night? No confidence, just going through the motions, didn't even attempt a shot. This guy should not play anymore this year. Scared to do anything.

    What I seriously do not get is why he isn't willing to shot the ball anymore. He usually has the ball wide open and chooses to pass the ball back or either pass to someone who's guarded. Wouldn't you think the coaching staff would address that? Especially with D'antoni always preaching to shot the open ball. It's baffling!

    i think both teams will play about 7.5 guys in game 3.

    ryno lost his confidence and won't even shoot. moute is looking like he has a case of the rynos too.

    the good news is that the warriors got rid of their depth by placing iggy in the starting lineup. they only have livingston and young, and west for a few minutes at center only. ego, green, and hopefully moute can/should outproduce those guys. the rest of the series.

    He was talking or asked a question about Tucker the game before but yes, he says shoot it.

    "That's what we believe. Hey, shoot 'em. If you're open, shoot 'em, I don't care who you are except I won't let Clint shoot threes yet but everyone else, if you're open, you shoot it. That's a good shot, we believe in you. If you're playing hard & not taking selfish shots, that will not affect the game negatively if you miss 'em."



    Hey Ryan Anderson, when you're in the game, shoot it mother****er!

    The problem is he looks to have lost all confidence in his shot.

    Ryno has got to have that gunners mentality or he’s going to kill us with his hot potato act.

    If he can be convinced to shoot then I’m all for him playing.

    What pisses most fans off about Ryno is not that he's missing shots it's just that he's not evening shooting

    When your only real skill is to shoot the ball and your paid 19m you just need to shoot the ****ing ball!

    I hope Ryno gets a lot of minutes .... if he plays , it means garbage time.

    Got to give credit to MDA, he subs a person in, if they don't perform, he puts someone else in.
    Luc misses 2 layups, sub Gerald in.
    Ryno scared to attempt a shot, put someone in who will take the shot.
    Nene getting burned on D, sit his ass down.

    So much different from McHale's keep the same rotation in even when they don't perform. I know we have a deeper bench but I think McHale would have Ryno, Luc and Nene out there even when they aren't putting up numbers.

    Just no op. I don't wanna see Anderson or Nene or Joe Johnson. Tuck wagon line up is what should start. That's the only adjustment u make. Those other guys would.make it to easy for the warriors to just pick on them. We have enough offense. I don't wanna sac defense for something that isn't needed

    I would say just give the minutes to green

    I know he has not been hitting threes as he normally does but to me it just takes one game and he could be in fire again from deep

    Just get rid of mbah altogether, I feel bad for him but the dude had to get his shoulder fixed it just looks obvious it’s not right.

    Once again I would test the waters with Anderson maybe even JJ if it gets that bad

    Otherwise I would just repeat what we did last night
