    So much for DeAleck's prediction :grin:.

    Hope it's nothing serious.

    Welp tonight's game just got a whole lot tougher. Hopefully we can still pull it out.

    So he's still playing right? And I thought they said Smith would start over DMo last game, what happen to that.

    Well, people wanted changes, so here you go.

    Clearly won't have to worry about iso-ball chucking! And Anderson will finally get playing time, what many also wanted.

    I'm glad that Harden is out, but would like to see Bev playing the #2 spot.

    This and DeAleck's prediction will make for an interesting game. Return of Linsanity? Or the start of BeverleySanity? Andersanity?

    Maybe McHale is just resting him because he doesn't think they will win anyway so he can burn him out in the rest of the games...

    Good for Anderson getting the start...

    If he's not out, he will be starting.

    Exactly, it said Anderson to start is what I'm getting. Third world headlines has got me bamboozled.

    I hope his foot is okay.

    Some well deserved rest. He had been logging 60 minutes per game for what seemed like forever and a day.

    I don't know if Greg can guard Blake, might be quick fouls on him.

    LINSANITYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

    Wasn't Harden out last time vs. the Clippers at home too? Remember how that went?


    :(

    @clutchfans

    McHale: Harden's foot has been bothering him for awhile. Said "D-Mo has 2 fouls before he can break a sweat" as reason for starting GSmith.


    That would explain Harden's recent play maybe?
