the complaint is that we always have to fight back. what if that was the lakers with kobe who can close out games too? what if it was against the mavs or spurs?? tmac will start most likely v. the jazz. we just need to play him more with brooks and landry that's all.
If TMAC starts, we probably won't even be able to fight back. TMAC can and should be able to fight back against opponents' second unit, but we won't simply take the lead against their starters.
i defintely think we need to keep testing this t-mac off the bench idea. when he starts, he tends to walk it up and go in slow motion, almost like he's bored. but when he comes off the bench, the game's already started so he has no choice but to raise his intensity level. that's why he's been showing a lot more energy and assertiveness right when he comes in. i havnt seen t-mac that agressive against seattle in a long time.
