    With a slew of new threads popping up everywhere here I thought I'd throw my thoughts in here. As soon as the game winds down and the Hack a Dwight initiates, should we bench Dwight in the 4th and keep Asik on the floor until the final two minutes? Though the final play where Parsons threw it to Dwight with less than two minutes remaining was just a bad mental mistake, that is a game we should've won.

    Also, we had a stretch in the 2nd q where we missed not three not four but SEVEN missed FTs. This similar situation happened last year where we lost several games by few points where FT shooting was a deciding factor.

    Also, Dwight couldn't pull a Hakeem by blocking Blake's game winning 3 with his fingertip.
