With Nene last game we most likely would have a 8 man rotation last game instead of only 7. Would gives us a physicality element against Gasol and forcing Pop to maintain more big men on the floor instead of wings. More hustle and rebounds on the floor, heart means alot in the playoffs. With only Capela, we don't have a backup big to share load/foul/minutes.
You do realize the Spurs are playing without their starting PG and now their superstar MVP candidate. Yes the Rockets miss Nene. Not an excuse
Nene is injury prone anyway and makes the minimum. If your team is that dependent on him then it's a house of cards. The problem is they never bothered to add another big OR play Harrell enough to where he would be able to contribute in the likely case that either Nene or Ryan got injured.
hahaha...Nene the reason we got blown out in an elimination game without their best player... gotta love houston fans who say "aww shucks! better luck next year!" So accepting of mediocrity.
