    Serious question here guys. Considering we needed Rebounding and someone to clong the paint, why didn't Asik go back in the game? Was he hurt??

    Wellhey had Wright at the C so he would have been to agile for Asik.

    Stealth Tank, the only problem is that McHale is ruining Harden by keeping him in longer then needed as well. .

    This is not a stupid thread. Sometimes we need to make other teams match us. That decision hurt us tonight because the lane was wide open

    Lol! Thanks! I'm just wondering. I've been a basketball coach almost 10 years and sometimes you need to make your opponent match YOUR personnel. We needed rebounding and a defensive presence in that 4th Quarter. McHale didn't put him in at all...smh.

    He was completely spent, so was Harden. We need to take a risk on the rooks more to give the starters a rest

    Can't remember who tweeted it (Jason Friedman?) but someone mentioned on Twitter that Asik has "flu-like symptons". Perhaps his flu was affecting his game?

    don't be silly. it was the fourth quarter. you should know by now how the staff feels about centers in the 4th quarter. they're basically terroristas.

    Asik needed to sit because Delfino was killing it out there playing PF. Yeah. That's right.

    This is not the first time coach benched him and lost, nothing new. Why? I guess coach also reget it. Play harden 45 minutes and parson 42 mintes, how can they compete in the 4th quarter with back to back game? Lots of fresh legs on the bench, what a good idea to fail?

    Need new coaching staff.
