    I would bet that neither Howard or Harden play every preseason game. My guess is McHale just doesn't want every starter sitting the same game.

    Garcia and Casspi will be great tonight. 3 point shooters usually have great chemistry with other 3 point shooters. It's a mental connection type of thing.

    With Lin and Parsons out tonight, I hope to see some progress and more production of what our other guys can do.

    No worries, good job explaining yourself! I was just wary of someone picking up on that and starting one of these needless arguments we see on this board more and more regarding lineups. Makes sense to sit them, especially after such a long trip, but, as someone else said, maybe he wants to see how Dwight plays with Casspi playing at the 4. Who knows, I'll enjoy the game regardless!

    Jet lag having heavy impact. Howard said yesterday he wanted to zonk out at 8 PM because of jet lag. From my own experience flying to and from China, I know jet lag cannot be denied.

    Now Beverley has the chance to set the preseason steals record on Oladipo.

    Get to it, Bev. We are counting on you.

    Bev is going to get the same amount of minutes as he usually does in preseason. This is more of a chance to see how Cannan does in longer minutes.

    Clutch is going to try to run 10 miles tonight, in full gear! That's like 3/4 of a half marathon.

    No reason why he can't score that many, especially if both Lin and Parsons are out tonight. This is Orlando, not the Pacers; it should be a win even without the usual starters.
