    That shorty with glasses, Urkel wannabe, said CP saved us from Donovan Mitchel in the playoffs last year.

    Yes, expand that rotation!!! MDA needs to be fired if he doesn’t play 9 guys at least. Give Rivers, House, Faried, Nene and Green time.

    Nearly DESTROYED by a guy putting up 19/4/6 on .360 FG% / .449 TS%.

    (Pretty sure he confused our series with the UTA / OKC series)

    Good points about depth, but are you kidding me? Mitchell? Chris played up brilliantly, but have they forgotten what Capela did to them with his defense?

    Well in Game 5, that's actually true. Mitchell got hurt in the 4th quarter(and was low on energy after the 3rd when he did literally everything for Utah), but CP3 was huge that night when Harden was awful(and allegedly under the weather).

    As to their other point, they're right that D'Antoni CANNOT be stubborn like he always is and shorten the rotation come playoff time. I'm fine if he goes to a 9-man rotation and maybe sits certain players(Green, Shumpert, Nene, Faried) depending on matchups. But if he winds up arbitrarily benching guys because he wants to only play 8 people and the Rockets go on to lose, that's on him.

    I have always really liked Sekou Smith. Always unbiased, watches the games and understands what teams need. I never see him push narratives or be unfair.
