    I like daniels but he cant defend... Especially against batum. Either put Parsons back or get garcia to guard batum

    Asik has 3 fouls left. Howard has 5 left. That means aggressive defense on Aldridge.

    No lane penetration when it happens. Here's what I don't understand...if Dwight goes up to dunk within 3 feet of the basket...it's either a basket or a foul. Just do it !!

    Agreed... they really have none.

    Should have won game 1. Lost game 2 in part due to stubbornness on how to defend Aldridge. Now they're in position to win game 3.

    No stupid lineups, continue the good defensive rotations, and stick with the Harden/Howard pick and roll (which they have been unable to successfully defend).

    We gave LMA too many FTs that quarter that's how's he got his touch.... Asik and Dwight need to play the whole 4th... If Asik needs to rest bring in TJones or dMo... Daniels needs to sit for garcia

    If Asik would just power dribble, he would gets dunks every time. I say we play Howard to start the 4th, bring in Harden with 8 minutes while taking out Howard and bring in Howard the last 5 minutes. But money is on McHale having none of our stars to start the 4th. Healthy dose of Lin send Parsons ISO then chuck up a bad shot. I would kill for an actual 6th man scorer right now. Nate Robinson, Jamal Crawford, any none who can get baskets.

    Jones is lost. On that last defensive play he hesitated to switch back to Batum. For a second he was going to leave Asik on him. Anyway, switched too late, easy bucket for Lopez.

    Wait a minute... who really thinks Asik is a better option than your all star SG with the clock ticking?

    This crew has surprisingly been the best one of the series. Joey loves to be part of the game and that typically means pissing off the home crowd.

    So far they have let the players play which is all you can ask.

    Garcia is better than Daniels.
