    He’ll still get opportunity to prove himself in game 3, but he’s dangerously close to playing himself out of this series.

    Not a knock on him, specifically, but it is what it is.

    It is certainly a knock on him specifically. He looks like a g league player who got cut from multiple nba rosters.

    It’s just a tough matchup and a realistic foil we might have to consider is going bigger. That means more minutes for Faried and Nene.

    Turnovers aside, we lost tonight’s game because of the offensive rebound and second chance disparity.

    Remember: This is what we thought about House last year.

    he shouldn't be playing more than about 15-20 mins a game on average and he shouldn't even be starting

    I will always irrationally believe in House, but I will admit that it has been a tough thing to do lately. Definitely should not be starting right now.

    Green should start, he’s been playing great. Split House and Carroll’s minutes

    he just hasn't improved since last season which is very discouraging.

    i'd argue that he has regressed. his defense is terrible which was one of the bright spots last year.

    Decline Danuel is a good name.

    Bench him, at least Benny Mac can hit a 3.

    House, Thabo and Ben are not playable vs Clippers. They don’t have strong body type.

    not strong enough vs Kawhi, Harrell, Morris....

    House is such a wildcard right now. It seems like MDA is trying to give him time to find himself, but if he continues to be this erratic on both ends I really hope that Carroll and Thabo get those minutes in the post season. The difference in defensive IQ is the biggest factor for me.

    I'd like to see what Bruno can do.

    We already know that Thabo has no offense.

    We might as well start EG in an effort to get him going. Him in the starting lineup worked really well last year. Plus, I don't really like both him and McLemore on the court together with River.

    WB/River
    Harden/McLemore
    EGo/House
    Bob/Green
    Tucker/Green
