    He got blocked a few times this game, and I remember a few bad blocks last game too. He doesn't have any elevation or speed right now. Found other ways he could help though obviously by getting 11 assist 6 rebounds and 12 FTs.

    If you STILL think benching lin and Asik was the correct choice last game you are r****ded, sorry.

    Key play was JL getting an and-1 back right after steph curry got an and-1 on him. Sapped the momentum and was a "don't back down" moment that JL can be so clutch with. Steph Curry is just a monster player. He can drop 54 on the Knicks why? Because he doesn't have to RUN to guard fatty Felton or old man Kidd on the other end. JL tired curry out tonight by constantly attacking. That last foul when he got Curry in the air? That's just a move you make when you're tired and you have no other recourse. He would have had a lot more gas in his tank if he just stood in the corner half guarding Beverley without having to move.

    You're right, fans don't care about defense, they vote for the stars. But the reserves are voted in by coaches, they usually care about defense.

    Seriously! Why can't we do this every game? Get JLin and Asik in EARLY 4th quarter instead of waiting until 5 minutes left.

    Actually, he's been doing that for sometimes against smaller guards, i.e. Collison.

    That's because McHale has listened to all of us and pretty much made no mistake in substitution and rotation, plus keeping all starters except DMo on the floor till the end.

    A big improvement of him tonight.

    Is it possible for coach to do a good job and we still lose? i feel like Coach will be blamed regardless of the job he did if we lose. thats how its seemed.

    There has been games when coach has done good, but we just simply got outplayed and the other team was playing really good basketball. Most fans here seem not to realize that its possible some other teams just play overall better than us some nights.

    Agreed. It's impossible to win 82 straight games.
