And even if they were saved by the clock.... you think everyone who Mchale stuck with on the floor -has higher confidence than before?.. -or lower confidence cuz they think the clock saved their asses? Really, what do you think they're feeling?
Thanks for your help. By the way, will you tutor me in rhetoric, Aristotle? A bunch of people imagined some stuff during the fourth quarter. They got anxious. Now their imagined scenarios are proven not to have come true, but they want to give them substance by recording them in writing. Well, in the fourth quarter, I imagined that the lead reduction was going to inspire the Rox to an eight-point victory! Isn't imagination fun to talk about?
I think Mchale did the right thing by letting the bench guys get some experience but giving them an entire quarter was a little bit risky. Omer Asik 22pts , 18 rebs, amazing night, I really liked his aggressiveness. Jeremy Lin 19 pts, 11 assists, I want to see more nights like this one from Jeremy. Francisco Garcia, 14 pts 5-6 from the field and 4-5 from the 3point range, he has played really well in the last two game,we are going to need players from the bench to step up in the playoffs. Greg Smith, 12 pts, really aggressive, only bad thing was foul trouble, he cant let fouls cut his minutes.
But nobody else was out there able to generate an offense. Delfino was trying to make things happen instead of nursing a dwindling lead. I love Delfino's contributions this year and he gets a pass by me as his shooting has helped is more often than not.
You care about a players confidence now? Lol. You sure give tough love to Lin when he's sat on the bench in critical minutes.
wth nba In a frigging rox magic game you replay the frigging kj dunk on hakeem like 4 times in 10 seconds? What you coukdnt find the stockton 3? I mean the magic were playing too, why not repkay nick andersons 4 missed fts?
Anyone know the status of LA? Might be a lucky break for Houston on Friday against Portland. Would be nice to go 4-1 this week.
Sorry I can not agree with you on this. This is only based on the result. There are some standards for the game, most coaches follow it because it work. When the team in the 4th quarter is losing the lead, the starter should be back in. It is not something like "I feel someone has more energy" can cover up
Fair enough. I don't see Anderson playing at all in the post season. Delfino will definitely play. What it should be is These 5 guys see major minutes Lin Harden Parsons Asik Delfino I would add Greg to the major minutes list but he will likely be in foul trouble LOL Greg or Dmo or Robinson (2 of these 3 guys will see some minutes) Beverly or Garcia (only 1 of these guys will see some minutes) Now with McHale what it likely will be something different. But guys like Bev & Anderson playing 20+ minutes typically wouldn't happen in the playoffs. My estimation is that they see 10 minutes tops but McHale will likely give them more for whatever reason.
