    I would sure hope so but McHale has a way of not playing some players but with only down to Dorsey and Smith as the bigs, Capela should get some PT tomorrow night.

    Only garbage time cause Toronto likes to play small and Smith/Dorsey would be enough for whole game. But you never know, Dorsey can foul out in 5 minutes...

    I don't think he made the trip... didn't see him on the bench today, anyway. I think we see him Wednesday, though.

    Nothing. He's just not playing on the 2nd game of back to backs.

    Tonight he had a couple of post-up shots. They couldn't do the pnr with Smith because the WAS bigs were defending well.

    We haven't won in Toronto in 7 years, hopefully we can win this time

    Dwight not playing makes Capela playing even less likely, because it's less likely there will be any garbage time

    Yes. March 16th, 2007 was the last time we won in Toronto. We've always split the season series with them.

    Curious to see if NcHale can find a way not to play this guy with literally no other bigs dressed besides Smith and Dorsey.

    I really want to see what he can do.

    McHale will suit up himself before Capela gets PT.

    Let's break both curses: Toronto and Capela not being able to score. I hope Rudy T gave some advise to McHale how he used to do it: let Capela play last 2 minutes of 1st quarter. If he plays well, do it again in the 2nd and so on.

    When you hear "7 years ago" I still think of like 2002 or something like that. Hard to believe March 2007 was 8 years ago.
