    Greg Smith deserves the PF position now. Better defender, scores better within the offense, and a better rebounder. Motie isn't even a stretch 4 with the way he's been shooting, so that benefit is gone.

    With McHale and a small 5 point lead with 30 seconds left, yes, we could have lost this, bro.

    and they've proven they are not up for the challenge. None of them getting crunch time minutes in the playoffs anyway, except maybe Beverely, but let's hope not, that means the team's in trouble.

    Should of subbed back in starters when the lead got around ~10pts. Risky, but still a win.

    I *HAVE* to believe that mchale's wife is being held at knifepoint by vegas mafia and the rockets needed to stay under the line tonight. I mean this is really the only way I can understand this otherwise baffling 4th quarter "coaching".

    Mchale played the bench the entire 4th while watching the lead slip. Mchale did not play Lin, or Asik in the 4th. Bench let the lead slip a lot.

    I'm alright with Mchale keeping that group in the game. If Rockets want to do well in the playoffs, these guys need to learn how to close out games/make winning plays.

    This is why Mchale should be fired. He has no awareness of the game situation. When Magic got it to 15..Lin & Asik should've come back in!!:eek:
