    Should we play defense?

    Well, we ended up releasing Covington because he didn't produce enough, but he didn't even get the chance to do it.

    And as for the G-League argument i don't know, Hartenstein has been a beast in the G-League too, petty sure he won an MVP too, but he still sucks when he plays with the Rockets so, i wouldn't put too much into that, Clark is just not that kind of player that will be necessarily in the spotlight cause he gets quick points etc, he's more one of those guys that makes the little things here and there. But if you never give him the chance, regardless of how good he can be, he's never going to prove it, if not in another team.

    People should buy more tickets to see Thabo at Center. Spectacle like the Ringling Brothers.

    In the regular season, sure. In the Playoffs, you're not winning a series unless Harden shows up consistently.

    Clark needs to prove it at practice and especially in GLeague games.

    Giving up on Covington was a mistake plain and simple.

    Paul struggled vs. Westbrook in past, hope this continues.

    Still no good reason/answer for carrying 5 centers & now you'll have Tucker/Sefolosha playing center. :rolleyes:

    Clint Capela - Tyson Chandler - Ryan Anderson - Isaiah Hartenstein - Nene
    Clint Capela - PJ Tucker - Tyson Chandler - Thabo Sefolosha - Ryan Anderson - Isaiah Hartenstein - Nene

    How Mike sees the roster :D

    Guards:
    Russell Westbrook, James Harden, Eric Gordon, Austin Rivers, Ben McLemore, Chris Clemons, Michael Frazier, Gerald Green

    Centers:
    Danuel House, PJ Tucker, Clint Capela, Thabo Sefolosha, Tyson Chandler, Gary Clark, Ryan Anderson, Isaiah Hartenstein, Nene

    I almost watched it this morning just to see the good parts, but didn't want to see the 23 thrown bricks by James and EGO, or the whinefest I heard about.

    This is beyond disturbing. Make sure it's against the right team please. Otherwise another Lopez type will destroy them down low.

    This team desperately needs more help in the frontcourt, specifically at PF. An Aaron Gordon type would be great, but don't know if attainable. If Ryan Anderson isn't going to play, why is he on the roster? No he's not the ideal PF they need, but he's a stretch 4 who should grab some offensive rebounds. Maybe a small ball 5 at times. If he's on the roster he needs to play, at least occasionally.
