Man...starters need a break...especially Lin LOL!:eek:
If the scoring keeps going at this rate I'd expect bench playing for the whole 4th quarter!
Main problem is Heat does not have a Howard...Hibbert was big for them versus the Heat.
Man....what was that!:eek:
I guess home court advantage?:eek:
Yup...you can't outplay muscle glad Howard is on him now.
Not to mention less empty seats!...those corporate seats.:grin:
So much fire in this game...doesn't feel like a preseason game..yet.
In short, a 6th man is a nicer way of telling a player that he's a bench player.:grin:
In their prime...not even in the same circle.:grin:
Seriously, no athlete in their prime would ever want to be the 6th man. However, this team is McHale's team now so he can start anyone he wants....
LOL...this is just the right thing for him to say. No one except Howard himself knows who he would rather play with.:rolleyes:
Agreed. To me it's night and day when compared to last year's preseason...speed and confidence.
Great article...good read!
Guys don't try to be like the Lakers and pull a Mike Brown.:rolleyes:Let the season play out and let McHale do his thing. Things will work itself...
I don't know you guys, but Lin playing with the 2nd unit is so much fun to watch.:grin:
True. Glad Fields and Novak got their $$$ before disappearing again.:grin:
Only thing is that non-reason games will mean Parsons, Harden, and Howard playing 35+ minutes....Lin may be seeing much less minutes if he doesn't...
You think about it, even thought it's just one game, but last year with that similar lineup (minus Parsons) Houston went OT with the Spurs...
Exactly, with Harden and Howard on your team it's hard for anyone else to shine. The 2nd unit is much more potent with Lin running the show.
