    yeah i'm not rolling the dice on ryno, joe, nene, or anybody else who isn't harden, gordon, ariza, tucker, capela, green, or luc..

    i wouldn't even bet $5 on that.

    you could get some spicy chicken nuggets form burger king with that.

    The thing he is does trust the people beyond 7 man roster, he trusts that they will screw it up so bad and miss all the shots. I agree with dantoni.

    One thing I noticed though is there are practice interviews between games. Why are the people who are playing in the playoff games for as long as they are even practicing? I would have them going through any treatment they can and not even letting them walk if i could.

    Green has completely shut down Capela. And it shouldn't be surprising. Why?

    • Capela was excellent against Towns and Gobert - two centers larger than him, because his advantage is quickness.
    • Green is smaller and quicker than Capela, and physical / agitating whereas Towns/Gobert are soft
    • Green shut down Dwight Howard and/or baited him into techs or offensive foul calls. As a bigger guy, having a little guy constantly holding you, pushing you, and receiving the benefit of all of the charging & over the back calls can really nullify your game.
    Don't expect anything offensive out of Clint.

    GG cant set screens to save his life. Spazzed out several times dribbling the ball in game 6.

    I wish D’Antoni would give GG some staggered screens or some elevator door closing movement to free the 3.

    GG is shooting 46% on 3’s on 4 attempts a game for the series (per basketball-reference.com)

    Turn him loose.

    Been watching CP3 highlights all day, I don't even **** with dude like that but this series has me feeling some kinda way. Dude is a legit playoff monster, its shameful this is his first conference final. Hopefully they give him a good combination of pills, just enough to evade addiction, and he can ball his little **** talking ass off tomorrow

    Can't really blame MDA.

    Not to nitpick Morey's decision but a 3rd Pg would have been so much more useful than JJ or Wright on this team .

    Which is why we should put in Nene to deliver some bows. Make donkey think a bit more . If he keeps getting away with impunity .... both from the refs and from us , then of course he's going to keep doing it

    Honestly i would put nene in. Get him the ball and if he can finish strong he is bigger than anything out on the Warriors. This our last chance to give everything and anything we got.

    I think Nene is a bad idea. He no longer has the athleticism to play a vertical game, and he will get agitated when he gets mugged just like anyone else. He will be a worse version of Capela.

    If mda plays more than 7 and we lose
    Expect 90 threads about he played (insert role play) too long
