Team is down 30 at the half. What is the justification behind using the same starting line-up for the 2nd half.
I just hope that people will like me

I think one of the few answers I would posit is an effort to punish the starters and their poor effort.

but clearly, there is no justification for not giving minutes in a blow out like this to chandler and r morris.

"I like the effort our starters showed in the 4th quarter... i think we can build on that for the next game"
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

Because at half-time, Isiah calmly explained to the starters that they weren't going to be traded. After hearing this, they were just able to go out and play.

Isiah Thomas believed his West side of Chicago story at halftime about the rough times eating popcorn for diner and how he was almost shot would motivate the team.

What's to question...he stinks as a coach. I think he's pretty much proven that. There's no reasoning with his coaching abilities...he has none.
NY KNICKS 4 EVER! Will we ever find players like Anthony Mason, Xavier McDaniels, Patrick Ewing again? I hope so.
