Is the Tank Back on?

It makes you wonder if it really is on, the way Quinn has been substituting lately. We were ahead 24-10 last night and he subbed for Hayward and Rudy earlier than usual, and it seems then that things fell apart and we never regained our momentum. I've noticed this has happened at other times when we were building up leads that substitutions stopped our runs. The lack of consistent PG play may also have something to do with it. Mack against Toronto had a number of momentum-crushing TOs. Something needs to be fixed with Rudy's inability to catch the ball -- it seems he's not ready to catch passes in traffic; his turnovers also have been killing our runs. And we still aren't getting the calls, although in the first half last night it seemed they were calling it correctly -- not in the second half though.
 
I think this recent losing streak on the road has sealed our fate, we will not be making the playoffs. So we might as well be talking draft position and who to select. Who do we make a run for in the off season etc This really hurts tho!

I agree about the substitutions, i thought the rotations and combinations on the floor were terrible to the point of wondering what the hell he was doing.

I still think there's a bunch of passes to Rudy that just aren't there or are poorly passed and give him little chance to either catch them for a guy his size, or to catch them in a position to be effective.
