    You can't go with the worst small player that you have when the coach has established using small ball.

    Deciding to play your worst small ball player in far"weed" defeats purpose of playing small ball.

    Golden State is smart enough to force switches on far"weed" to either let curry chunk three pointers on far'weed' like how they did on Nene late in game 1 or get far"weed" in foul trouble.

    We definitely need to start Faried or give him more minutes. D’Antoni needs to put our bigs out there and let them work. We’re getting killed by Kevon Looney of all people.

    You assume rockets will get more possessions at other times in the game but don't forget rockets going against "all nba first team, Dre Greene".

    Greene had six rebounds in first quarter game 1, and five rebounds first quarter game 2. So rockets opportunities are limited.

    Nah Faried doesnt have a place on this team as MDA sees him as a center not a pf.
