Our problem is we don't have a legit start up PG.

Ok phew LOL It's funny we get blown out by the pavers, legit title contenders, and people are calling for more unproven players Pls
How do you know? When I first saw Canaan I felt like he was fine his shot was just dry. And like I said earlier better to have him on the bench than Brewer.
Lose 1 game to the top team in the East when playing on their home turf - Better replace our players with other players in the d-league - Clutchfans logic
I dont see whats wrong with giving Canaan a chance while Lin is down. Our PG's are Bev and Brooks. Out of the 3 who has the most upside? I just say bring them up and see how they perform in practice with the big guys and who knows if its the spark we need.
The Rockets have a very short lineup and a very short bench now. I don't see any harm in bringing them up so they can get the occasional minutes in blowout games. It will also give the bench players pressure to perform.
McHale showed with Parsons that he can recognize and will promote talent. If any roster spot had been available the organization would have kept Lin. But that one is on Morey. Canaan's time may come. Depend on McHale to recognize when.
that's the basics,..... I don't think killer instinct and mental toughness can be learned within one season.
