Yep, your correct. If Pat was in there I have no doubt he would have done something to affect the game even if he was away from the basket. He would have done the little things that would have contained the run (not stop it). Andersen got a couple tip ins and there were a couple 50/50 ball Pat would have dove for which Hill and company watched while Orlando converted for easy buckets...
Cant wait till wednesday to see Blake Griffin destroy this team, fat boy chuck hayes is going to have his hands full.
The Orlando Magic put us in match-up hell. They kill us on the pick and roll, and when we tighten that up and stay on their shooters, they throw the ball down low and hammer us with Howard 1 on 1. Match-up hell.
why is adelman still playing starters. he is just sucking the gas right out of them.this is just horrible coaching
What is Hills stregth? When it comes to the defending in the paint, He's not fast enough, strong enough, long enuff, athletic enough, smart enough to do anything.
The plan is too have them too tired to play in the 4th. So he can have his favourite trio of Brooks Hill and Bud finsih the game. Hayes, Martin, Lowry need to be fresh and play the whole 4th quarter. Battier and Scola have been really flat lately, avergae-medicore.
at some point the starters need some rest. its the second game on a back to back. he needs to trust the bench
