Bad roster management. Who would you rather have your best defensive center up against, Cousins or Chandler?
How are we overreacting? 40 points in the paint in the first half?! Even without Dwight, that's inexcusable. Even last year's Rockets wouldn't have given up that much.
Our bigs are defensive. The only bigs with a post game are DMo and TJones, but they're not primary scorers and are only good for a few baskets a game. In crunch time, they won't get the ball. Our offense is so basic. Is it that hard to admit?
It's not just about 1 on 1. It's about the entire team. Dallas is a better team and has a much better offense, so Howard should be there for that game to protect the paint. The problem with people that think like you is that if Howard played tonight and we won, but he didn't play tomorrow and we lost, you'd use "roster management" again. Never ends with some y'all
the dwight effect. even for half a season and playing injured, his defense is too stronk. box score doestn even say the half of it
