    The less time with Delfino on the court the better... he has 10.0 PER this season, in the top 20 worst players in the league for guys with over 20mpg.

    Need to get TD off the court too, he looks terrible on offense & defense.

    The Rockets looked like headless chicken out there when the Spurs were passing the ball around.

    Lin always gets taken out early no matter how well he does, it seems. I think it's part of McHale's strategy to stagger Lin and Harden throughout the game.

    Also, Lin was dominating the ball a bit too much. Harden wasn't getting any touches.

    I'm not a fan of TD but Lin can't play 45 minutes a game. TD's gotta come in at some point and sometimes he does catch lightning in a bottle.

    Yep, just got to live with it.

    Spurs will cool off though, no way they continue to shoot 70%...Rox still in run distance.

    hey coach, perhaps you should tell the guys to play some f*king defense for once.
    bench the guys who are not covering their man and send a message that way.

    Gotta love McHale's offensive plan, every man for himself, try to beat your man one-on-one, and that's it. Ridiculous. Look at the Spurs offense, plenty of movement and screens to make it easier for them to score. McHale is a joke.

    You are an idiot. Lin didn't do a good job of recovering on the drag screen to start the game and Duncan got his points off that action... I hate to tell you, but these guys are kind of good at the mid screen and roll. Now stop posting.

    Give TD some credit. The bench helped to stop the Spurs momentum from snowballing it being a complete blowout.

    Yep, Harden couldn't go Harden on the Spurs without touching the ball.
