    Yeah at least play Troy 10 mins lol. Whats the point of getting all these guys if MDA doesn't even play them?

    Popovich and PJ always made sure to play all their guys during the regular season so they know what they have in the playoffs. MDA is the opposite apart from his 7 guys he doesn't play anybody else and when playoffs come these guys are all untested.

    But who else can he play? Luc is injured. Troy is in RGV. He tried Bobby and it didn't work. This roster assembled by the idiot Daryl Morey is top heavy with very little depth.

    It’s difficult to have depth when key players keep getting injured.

    if it is, they why did morey still needed to get Melo?

    but lets see. you know they're up against superteam gsw with steph, kd, green, & klay right?

    CP3 had blake and DJ and Harden by himself had more wins and Clips were beaten in the 1st round by the jazz

    basically harden, cp3, and 2 of ego, ra, ariza, capela needs to play championship level basketball

    and cp3 needs to get back playing again because the whole point of getting him was to give harden a least some rest

    How is the roster top heavy? We only have two superstars other teams like the Cavs or OKC have 3 guys making max money. The rest of the team apart from Anderson are all on either rookie deals or very team friendly contracts this team is not top heavy at all.

    Trying 1 guy out of the 11 other guys on the team isn't exactly scraping the bottom of the barrel wtf. How about Troy Williams for starters? Tarik Black?

    How do you know what type of players MDA plays? He plays Ariza (defensive specialist) just as many mins as Hardens (one of the worse defenders in the L). Its looking like MDA will only play someone if he is in the first 7 players in the lineup.

    Damn, this could have been a legendary game for Jimmy if he had just closed better. I get it though, it's tough when he had no rest in between the 3rd and 4th quarter.
