There is a board consensus on how T-Rob is going to pan out? I still thought it was somewhere between d-league-er and the star PF we have been waiting for. We need at least a few more games to see what we've got.
Might have something to do with jettisoning four players out of a nine player rotation at just the wrong time.
I dare say a loss tonight may be indicative of missing the playoffs. They have every reason to focus tonight. Lakers on their heals, two 17pt blown lead losses recently, a total recognition on the lax "D" recently. If they cant get it done against Orlando, then I start to really doubt if they are playoff material.
Looking forward to the outcome. We need a big win to boost confidence after that heartbreak of a game that was Milwaukee.
So if we lose tonight we miss the playoffs, meanwhile the Lakers are still alive and a couple of games behind us.
Letz go McHale...!!! Having a better coach would be equivalent to adding another star player... McHale needs to get it together. Trading Patterson and a bunch of other mediocre bench players is just an excuse for losing games.
