    We don't really have a back up for Harden/Parsons. That's the main issue.

    The drop off at the 2 and the 3 are humungous. And Asik doesn't have the motor to play tons of minutes because playing Center is such a physical position.

    If we ever get solid backs up for Parsons, Harden and Asik, watch out.

    Lin plays like he has no 4th quarter.
    Mchale: Lin, come sit next to me. It's 4th quarter now.
    :cool:

    Probably a coach decision. If you look at his game by game stats, he always get 3 to 5 rebounds every game. This change in the last few weeks.

    Coach probably think Lin is better at fast break and long pass (i hope it is the case)

    When Lin plays well they aren't around at all to give him any credit, but when he plays poorly they all crawl out of the woodwork to get their bashing in. LOF are here regardless.

    Lin is playing out of a serious injury. It's normal. As long as Mchale is consistent with his minutes and substitution patterns, it is fine.

    I do feel Mchale needs to control Harden's minutes. Rest him more.

    I think you someone needs to start a thread titled:

    T. Jones is INJURED, that's why he did not play on 03/03/12



    People really don't read anymore

    This could be due to McHale wanting to conserve JLin's energy for next few games.

    By next season he should definitely let Lin in to get his double-double in situations similar to today's game.

    Right now it could go either way and I say this as a fan of JLin.

    i'd also like to see mchale run some plays through DMO..or at least let him post up more. It spreads the floor some. And D-mo can then get crafty in the paint or pass it back out to the 3 point line
