ClutchFans Game Thread: Magic @ Rockets 4/1/2013

With your starting sg and SF out MCH only played Lin 30 min still. Told you months ago MCH **** blocking linsanity at it finest. If any other game you play Lin more than 30 min it would be tonight. Piss the lead away Mcfail what loh got to say now

 

Yeah negativity gets to me and tough to read while investing emotion in the game. Now I just watch the game, and then read the game thread later and have a good laugh.

 

Yea, I probably would have done different but with all these injuries and players missing like today...you really don't want to mess anything up espeically after Lin and Asik played so hard and well.

 

fixed

 

I think if Mchale would've subbed, you'd be complaining he should've left them in instead. I think it was a good pressure test, and made a couple guys grow some hairs

 

Almost lost the game in the last minute is not what I called genius.

 

I hear you but no offense, I think you could be on the court 33 minutes and stare down at the floor and corral more than 2 rebounds. He needs to be heavier but it's around the nut sac area.

 

Agreed. Seems like he would talk like Shane Battier, but he pretty much sounds like a lot of the white players.

 

Wanted to see AB, but the bench's complete lack of any offensive competence and defensive effort turned a blowout into a close game. SMH.

 

Chill out dude, I would rather have him rested and healthy, we nee dhim. Remember what he said after the memphis loss and sitting the 4th with the rest of the starters? "Most energy we have had in a game" the next game vs the clipps.

 

Mchale is too pissed off with the second unit's play and he dares them to fix their mess even if it risks a loss. Too emotional.

 

because it went from an easy win to 2 possessions away from a loss...

 

isnt it more important for lin/asik to get those crisis management minutes over beverley and trob/dmo?

 

THAT is how you build your bench's confidence.

Any one see this any differently?

 

Beverly is great but this is the problem . He allows the offense to stagnate.

 

Great win. That was fun. Greg beastin and feastin.
Magic with dat shot clock cheese.

 

This doesn't make any sense. In the playoffs you shorten your rotation significantly. There is very little use for bench players in the post season. McHale was playing with fire.

 

he deserved. c'mon, 5 pts. it is too close to predict who will win. yes, we won but if we had lost what would have happened?

of coz, we're just lucky to get this win. don't you think we need every win to have a good chance to move up to 6th spot?

 

Turkey is in Asia

 

I see it as McHale being stubborn. Most coaches would bring back their starters.
