it was so long ago i would hope that it's water under the bridge for dolan.

as for giving our top five rest, when i hear mda speak he just doesnt get it, he says stuff like i will give them more days off. smh. not rest after the game is over, rest em during the game mda; to keep the starters fresh enough to put games away.

We don't have what we need to hold teams defensively and I think we have to wait on Donnie to bring in more help. This is an offensive team and if we have an off night scoring we'll struggle to win games. How would JVG do with a team like this? I'm not that confident he'd do well with this current team.

good point. but maybe jvg would say to toney, look i need you to be a bruce bowen more than i need you to take that shot.

You're overrating what we have on our bench. Sure you can play guys but that doesn't mean they'll always put you over the hump. Look at what happened tonight when we played TD at the point. Things went down fast. Exactly who do we have off the bench that is as productive as Verajao in the middle?

I think you are underrating what we have on the bench. MDA got to change his ways and trust.

Decision making of some of the starters today was totally low IQ or lazy. They could not create any big lead so that the bench can try and show up but even that the bench was not good. TD was usual out of control lately. Shawne was probably the only bench player that was playing the system.

i understand. but i am looking it with a point of view that mda has been out-coached last three games.

four dnp's again, starters going over 40 minutes again. all for a losing effort.

mda needs to practice his timeouts, rotation, and play calls.

how?

we have no one on the bench that is that is able to perform.

randolph? ha

mozgov? ha

who you wanna see come in the game?

how about gallo taking bad shots, and some other bad choices on the court.

it was neither its called, tired. felton jacked up a lot of shots without looking to pass. it was just tired play all around.

and no you dont wait for a big lead to include your bench, you include them from beginning of game to end. walsh did not hand mda a bunch of scrubs, they are all serviceable, to help our top five guys win.

Call it tired but here is gallos stat:

D. Gallinari(notes) 39:03 FG 3-14 3PT 1-10 FT 0-0

I am a big time supporter of gallo but you kidding me 0-0 free throw and 1-10 3pt thats not smart to me.
