    Yea dude just brings it at all levels offensively and defensively, I have to agree I just don't trust Bev out there come playoff time for some reason. I think it's cuz everyone's playing just as hard as him so he seems a little outmatched.

    This team is so strange! It's nearly impossible to coach or to decide a 'system' that all people here are lookong for. C-lack of skills, SG-lack of defensive willingness, PG-lack of playmaking skills. IRONICALLY, they are the three positions that fans here are most proud of!

    McHale will make no adjustment.
    Yes, this is how bad he is.

    I'd have Durant score 60 just to save us.

    Not unless you considering hoping LaMarcus Aldridge plays worse and James Harden plays better as an adjustment. That'll be McHale's gameplan tonight.

    Bev has been playing fine, in fact he has been fairly consistent this play off. But I would say defensively maybe nto as a lillard stopper, but bev has been playing well. But would Lin be better starting? maybe. he does need to attack lillard, and having lin be a threat may take pressure off harden and the team for some easy buckets.

    at this point i would be willing to try anything - if harden isn't makin ghis shots, someone else has to try and step up and have a big night. i think ppl are trying to hero ball a bit much to be the saviour of the team. that's not the right mentality (unless you have a hot hand). harden and parsons did not have a hot hand and kept forcing shots.

    If Lin starting leads to more shots from Lillard and less touches by Aldridge, I am all for it lol.
