Serious question, is it better for us if we bench Donovan for the last 5 minutes of the game? Not poking at him and not joking either. He is decidedly, and statistically, bad in the waning minutes, especially if the game is close. Would we be better off at this point running with, say, Conley, Clarkson, Royce, Bojan, Gobert, or even House in place of Clarkson? I know the offensive punch isn't there but it strikes me this could be addition by subtraction.

I certainly don't think we'd be any worse but it obviously will never happen. I would just like to see Don make better and more timely reads with an accurate pass or two out of double and triple teams.

I bought a ticket to this game back when I thought it would be important to determining who gets the #2 seed.

Going to live count everytime Don passed to Rudy

It shouldn't take a rocket surgeon to figure out why things go to $^it in the last five minutes. How many degrees does Quin have? He ought to be able to figure it out and fix it.

You should do a video of downing a shot (of your choice) every time.

No way, I actually want to catch a buzz.

Just kidding, I think we see a lot of passes from DM to Gobert tonight. DM knows this (not this thread specifically) conversation is happening and people are paying attention.

I’m pounding Donovan over 5.5 assists and Rudy over 14.5 points tonight.

DMi will just throw any ball he touches down there to RGo just to discombobulate him...

 

[outerspacefan]

May be they can try to put the basketball on Mike hands and let Mitchell move around without the ball a ittle bit... between Don and Rudy moving there should be lots of space out there to operate for Mike and the other 2 guys... IDK... a little bit of basics... but hell... what do I know....

 

[outerspacefan]

Anyway. I do not think we are taking a 20+ lead tonight...

For your viewing pleasure, prolly posted somewhere in antoher thread already but I tend to read less here when times get bad, I'm already depressed enough I don't need any help feeling sad or pissed off.
