    I think he was like +3 in 21minutes. Rivers was out and House hasn't been all that special.

    Yes that's a better +/- than Gordon, Paul, Green, Capela.

    Im an Shumpert hit his first three in the first quarter.

    Shumpert was cold after that but I don't think Tucker scored any buckets this game ? :/

    Idk why MDA has to decide who he's gonna play in any given game - and thats it - period.

    Faried never made it on the court.... toss him in for 5 mins and see if he provides a spark....

    Hi.

    I'm going to need most of you to send me your address so I can drop by and set ablaze a bag of dog poop on your front porch before ringing the door bell and running away.

    I'm also going to need to buy @Newlin and @sirbaihu a beer.

    Thanks!

    As I said, we're almost going to be 100% guaranteed win when the role players do a good job.

    Otherwise, wide freaking open because these role players are only taking 3s and layups. That's not enough to get us wins against the elite teams.

    The only other way for us to bag wins is to have outstanding defensive plays consecutively. While this happens frequently, with PJ playing swarming defense, we're now playing elite teams and that's a totally different ball game.

    why let him shoot? why let him fkin play? He brings absolutely nothing to the table. This is morey telling mike that he needs playing time to make his trade look good. He has looked AWFUL.

    He should not be playing - House, Green, Faried should play instead.

    Role players typically play better at home games.

    Maybe this was the game he needed but the guy had looked like hot garbage.

    I am not a believer still and playing him in gs in risky move imo. Hopefully dantoni will tighten rotation when at gs

    Tighten his rotation next game? Shump will not play, and who else?

    Yeah yeah, all you guys are like "We won . . . but I hope next time is different."
