    Garcia is helping in that spot as well. It's a loss for sure but we might be able to manage especially splitting some minutes with Lin

    Hate to see him go but Garcia is the new Delfino, with better shot selection.

    Sad to hear that. He was one of my favorite guys this season. I hope we see him again next season, but I have my doubts.

    Garcia will now takeover the role of spot-up shooter

    press release...


    Carlos Delfino Medical Update

    A CT scan performed yesterday on Rockets forward Carlos Delfino revealed a bone fracture in his right foot that will require surgery this offseason. Delfino will miss the remainder of the 2013 NBA Playoffs.

    “Carlos has played a large role in our success so far this season and we are disappointed for him that he will not be able to finish out this playoff run,” said Rockets General Manager Daryl Morey. “Carlos would love nothing more than to be out there with his teammates as they prepare for tonight’s Game 6, but this is the type of injury that requires a surgical repair. We expect he will be fully recovered in time for the start of next season.”

    Delfino was forced to leave midway through the second quarter of Game 5 at Oklahoma City after experiencing soreness in his right foot. The eight-year veteran from Argentina played in 67 contests (five starts) during the regular season and registered averages of 10.6 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game. He posted averages of 9.0 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.0 assists in five playoff appearances this postseason.

    James Anderson is more than capable of filling that role. Former spur who can create his own shot as well as a smart basketball player who seems fairly intelligent on the court.

    Beverly-40 minutes
    Harden-43 minutes
    Garcia-38 minutes
    Parsons-42 minutes
    Asik- 38 minutes

    Subs
    Brooks-15 minutes
    Lin-15 minutes
    Smith-10 mintues

    I think lin and brooks will both get an opportunity to play and whoever plays better will see more minutes in the second half, but I dont really see anyone else playing unless someone gets in foul trouble. If its Asik then I would assume TJones could log some minutes. We just really cannot afford for Chandler or Garcia to get into foul trouble as it seems they are the only two that can check KD
