    We need more points out of our bench. Every time the starters sit, lead gets decimated.

    The Sixers just won't go away...

    And I never want to see a lineup of TD, DMo, Asik, Parsons, and Delfino (or whatever it was) ever again.

    Aside from his boxing out DMo looks good. Hope we can blow the Sixers out by the 4th so he can see more action.

    Why's everyone saying Jeremy's in foul trouble...unless all the box scores from every site is wrong....

    play by play:

    03:32 Lin Foul: Shooting (2 PF) (1 FTA)
    03:32 Turner Substitution replaced by Young
    03:32 Lin Substitution replaced by Douglas

    2 fouls....

    People are hating on Toney, because he's been terrible this game. Lin is 4-4 from the field, sooooo.....

    It's not that he took Lin out - he took LIN and HARDEN out at the same time.

    D'oh...

    He looked kind of bad on the boards, not boxing out well. Made one stupid drive where he lost the ball and committed a turnover. One nice post move for a bucket, and got another easy bucket finishing off a great look at the basket on a dish from a driving Harden.

    So he did some positive things and some negative things. Need to see more to judge.

    Like a rookie, had some nice post moves, but made a fair share of mistakes and fouling.

    McHale is like a robot when it comes to subbing Lin out but with Douglas he likes to go by the "feel" of the game.

    Coaching failure. Pull out players when they are hot (Lin has 2 fouls, not 3)
    Pull out Lin and Harden at same time
    Give TD a ton of minutes and let him run the offense
    Call timeout 4 possessions after riding enemy team's momentum

    Lin plays a total of 13:57 in the entire first half...McHale better be playing him at least 20 minutes in the 2nd half.

    By that count how many losses was he solely responsible? I don't blame the guy tho, the coach keeps on letting him play point guard, which he is not. It's like how they want Lin to play spot up shooting.

    Although the game is close, our starters are looking great! Just need our bench to get going and this game becomes a W

    Yeah, I mean, I can understand him giving the rookies run, but if he's going to do that, I think either Lin or Harden should be on the floor facilitating.

    And nothing less than both Parsons and Asik on the floor if Douglas is alone out there running point.
