    I want to see luc, bruno to play for more minutes. Rest all the starters to ensure they have full power to play in playoff.

    EGo, RoCo, Tucker, and House should play between 20-25 mins and use this game to try to get into rhythm.

    This will only be EGo's 2nd game in the bubble - he played decent, but his shot was still broken in the last game - 1-9 from 3.

    Tucker's only shooting 29% from 3 in the bubble.

    RoCo's shooting struggles have already been highlighted a lot.

    House has been out the last couple of games, so it'll be important for him to get back into form.

    Practicing 3's is not the same as in-game action.

    Chuck Hayes and Dwight were said to have been amazing FT shooters in practice, but we all saw how terrible they were in-games.

    I hope we sit Harden and let this team without Harden and Westbrook figure out how they can create points by moving the ball and playing smart. Let them try to figure it out for 48 minutes.

    Please give minutes to our 9th/10th/11th guys, we need to make sure they can run if we need them. Can't bring them frozen off the bench.

    Caboclo
    Green
    House
    Gordon
    Rivers

    Can these 5 seriously not hold it down offensively for 5 minutes a half? Just keep running pick and roll with Rivers and whichever is hot.

    We must win this game in order to go into the playoffs with a positive frame of mind.

    Let’s go Rockets!
