    So where is this rotation while Ryno is completely useless and won’t even shoot?

    I mean it’s not like Green came through for us or anything before right

    If it wasn't a tight game, we would have seen Green get some burn. Harden and CP3 both got more minutes than they should have. Worth it for the win.

    Green deserved to get some minutes with the way he played earlier. Not a lot, but 5-12 or so. Even that would help to take minutes away and reduce workload on others

    Typical. Coach just can't bring himself to do it, 10 is just too many.

    It will be disappointing if Green is relegated to the garbage minutes squad. He played well enough to be apart of the rotation. I feel he could have provided a needed spark and this game tonight wouldn't have been as hard probably.

    When Anderson is having a bad night move Bootay to the 4 and Green to the 3. Especially when Gordon’s outside shot isn’t falling as well

    Green is athletic enough to hang with guys like heat. He needs some ****ing minutes form Christ’s sake.

    Green should've taken some of Gordon's minutes as he was just jacking up 3s...

    Green had ice pk on his knee. Kind of strange. Maybe some injury.

    We have literally the worst possible coach for a deep roster.

    MDA's 10 man rotations are so efficient he only has to use 9.

    But barely .

    Nene only played 9 minutes .

    Granted , it worked pretty well when we went small tonight . But , I'm nervous MDA will go small when playing nene would be the better choice since he has a tendency to love small ball

    When houston vs weak teams, I suggest to rest some players to make Green fit and keeps his hot hands. Putting him in the bench will waste for it. Hope MDA think about it. Vs weak teams will not have any risks and worth to do that.
