    They're saving Joey Crawford for Game 6 or 7. If we somehow win tonight pray for Joey Crawford in Game6. We would stand a fighting chance.

    Our role players are gonna step up and play huge. I nominate Brewer to break out. Please Harden shoot at least 25 times.

    I like the changes!!!! T Jones might dominate again. Adds more intensity off the bench. Listen. If we win this game convincingly it could ignite this team. I really have faith in these guys. I hope they don't let us all down. We have the talent.

    TJ has a chance to play more against backups. He's just so outmanned agains Blake and Jordan inside. Could be a nice spark off the bench.

    The other important change McHale must make: Harden must play at least 42 minutes. I'd give him three 2 minute breaks. This is the ****ing playoffs and an elimination game no less. Time to man up and play big minutes.

    Are the stuffed mini-balls consolation prizes?

    Another synergy from this move, it gives both Smith and TJ extra motivation; Smith to prove McHale right and TJ to prove McHale wrong. Each guy shoul step up their game tonight. This move is full of win even if Smith sucks balls. It was the right move.
