    If we come back, it's brilliant, but what the hell? Season is on the line and Harden is sitting the fourth? It's halfway over for crying out loud.

    Please, someone get a coach in here...

    this is McHale making a good decision. Harden on the court isn't doing us any good right now. Let the players that are making the comeback stay in. let the hot hand play.

    This lineup on the court is hustling and playing good defense. Harden is too gassed on offense and defense. He needs the rest.

    Because he is one lazy assed defender and Redick is shutting him down on offense.

    Probably should sub him in soon though. Brewer's not so great when the game slows down.

    Man I'm not a McHale supporter at all .... but the guy has some brass balls leaving Harden on the bench this long , despite what that unit has been able to do.

    They're winning so I'm not complaining. The team comes first.

    I went to poop when HOU was down 13 in 4th, I return after pooping and Rockets down 3. Now they're up 6.

    This is Mchale's best coaching performance ever. The transition is smooth when harden is on the bench.

    I love it when a good reverse psychology thread works.


    Did it all for you guys!


    McHale, you're one gutsy SOB.
