I'm just very frustrated with the ineptness of our rotation management. Maybe I'm missing something....but Harden has been really cold in these 2 games and in the 2nd game his even worse. My question is, why oh why then do we play Harden 44 min out of the 48 min?? Wouldn't be smarter to give him breaks to ensure he continues to have fresh legs so he can get out of this slump during the game????
This will just get lost in that thread since that thread will be getting heaps of heat at the moment. I sincerely want to know what people think the mindset of the coaching staff was when they decided to play him basically the whole game? It's like putting the whole team's chances of winning on the back of Harden's performance (which is fair enough if his performing okay). BUT when you can see clearly that Harden is gassed and out of Rhythm and needs a break to gather himself mentally and physically....why the hell would you throw the whole team under the Bus with him??
