    It's ridiculous that Joe Johnson got 16 minutes in such an important game. MDA's loyalty to Joe is hurting this team.

    How do we raise a public firestorm to push him out of the rotation?

    Ideas:

    1. TWITTER
    Click here to tweet this to all of the reporters that have access to ask D'Antoni questions:

    @JonathanFeigen @KPRC2AdamW @KellyIkoNBA @Rockets_Insider @DTGoteraKHOU @DavidNunoABC13 @AdamSpolane @moisekapenda @doloresalozano @BenDuBose Please ask coach D'Antoni this question: When will you evaluate Joe Johnson's performance and adjust his minutes in the rotation?

    2. RADIO
    Call in to the Matt Thomas radio show when he has MDA on. Tell the call screener that you're going to ask some fluff question like coach's favorite player that he ever played with back in the day. Then when you get on the air, say "I appreciate your loyalty to Joe Johnson, but he's had a tough time as a Rocket. How much longer before you reduce his minutes?"

    Any other ideas?

    Didn’t read post but agree with title. Blow up Morey or call matt Thomas when he has d Antoni and bug him with questions.

    Green >> Joe

    "Any other ideas"

    Take it lying down like the inconsequential b****es we are ??

    It took Daryl a year to get MDA to play more than 8 guys . And all he had to do was get 11 Good NBA players .

    MDA does what he does ... And as an executive you have to give your coach a lot of freedom .

    He isn't gonna play GG over JJ unless JJ gets hurt . Let's hope that he played Anderson over him . If not .... Then we can legit riot

    I'm sure NBA coaches make it a habit to adjust their rotations based on the opinions of fan's tweets and radio talk shows

    Coach needs to start getting the question over and over from different folks so he knows that it's time to move on and end the experiment.

    I'm not just going to sit on my hands and do nothing. If there's a 1% chance of making a difference, I'm going to do what it takes to keep Joe Johnson from holding this team back. We need EVERY game possible to hold onto that #1 seed, which we're going to need against GS.

    I hope Muller comes after Joe Johnson.

    Sends out really bad Russian vibes on the court.

    Joe did not play any impressive game so far since he is a Rockets.

    Coach giving that special treatment to Joe, probably feels like since he's a vet he should automatically get pt ahead of Green but Green has earned his spot since he got here dude's been ballin out #freegreen

    Would Gerald Green have made a difference?

    Joe gave up a 3 and a layup in one-on-one situations, turned the ball over and passed up an open 3 that led to a turnover. Gerald might make 1 of those 4 mistakes, so YES, in a one possession game that would have made a difference.
