    It's Ok, you're right, but speaking about rookie mistakes, how many of those Shump commited the last game?
    It's not like your vet is missing shots but playing solid D, understanding your offense, the sets..... Shump has made some shots but he's looking like a complete rookie out there. Plenty of mistakes.
    I honestly would doubt about the rotation for game 5 if I was Mike. He has more information than us and hopefully will make the right choice, yet neither will be the perfect solution.

    I have no doubt I would keep giving Green a try. He still has the ability to be differential at a key game.

    ESPN, Fox, CNN, BBC, CSPAN, Times Magazine, The Onion, David Hardisty, Bill O'riley, Warriors Weekend News, Basketmad... a lot of chatter out there... and it's all about Eddie House.

    Correction: Danuel House

    Let me put it this way. If green doesn't score 9-12 points (all multiples of 3, obviously), he doesn't outweigh his lack of defense.

    House, at his best, can hit the 3 at a similar rate, attack the rim, and defend better. If we can get 10 minutes of that guy going, that's icing on the cake.

    That screen shot was from last year. We were down 0-1 in game 2. This year.

    And this is why HOFs got it ultra-twisted in believing that a rookie with 0 prior Playoff experience would be THE piece that would put us over-the-top

    What I said in other post! We gave away so many rebounds in 1,2. So, we got less shots at three while they got a lot more of easy 2’s.

    At this point take the money we were going to House in free agency and give it to Rivers instead. He's only a year older than House anyway and has a lot more a resume as a defender and creator.

    The whole team has been guilty of making those kind of plays -- not just House. Permabenching him for that is garbage, especially considering that Shumpert while playing well has also made a few gaffes on the defensive end, including rebounding.

    House has made small ball work which is why rockets kept him.

    With capaela making 80 million, capaela needs to be in there 42 out of 48 minutes of every playoff game

    I have to believe if House was healthy he'd be getting minutes. Any word on his status for tonight? Or if he even traveled with the team?

    He should get another chance today. Boxing out is easy mistake to correct. In fact, all our players had this problem first 2 games. We are doing better since game 3 as a team now. He can be great asset for this game.

    There were reports that house injured his foot that’s why he was out rest of the series.

    What is with the ethnic BS? Dont like the guy, fine but attacking all of Italy or other Italians is Bush League.

    And I'm not even Italian.
