Doc "Small Ball" Rivers

On a serious note though,

I wouldn't mind seeing what Fab Melo could do.

Phoenix is a not a good team, so I'm hoping Fabs nerves wont get the best of him.

A bit too late though, no Darko.

Pop would have sat KG against the Lakers.

Jeff Green is going to get a lot of minutes tonight.

Although, Luis Scola is pretty tough in the post. Maybe Doc won't give J.Green major minutes at power forward tonight.

Nah, they got Crawford so that they could move JET to the C position.

Darko is definitely missed in situations like this.

That dude is Huge and kind of intimidating looking.

Has some skill too.

Wish he was still in green.

no Darko, no Sullinger, no Collins. I really hope Bass gets 4 first quater fouls tonight, I can't stand seeing him for long stretches

I seriously hope Bass was playing like crap on purpose so he wouldn't be traded.  Now that the trade deadline has passed, he'll actually start rebounding, playing defense, and make better decisions on the offensive end.

Wishful thinking I guess.

Phoenix isn't that bad that we can sit KG and only have ten players---three of which don't know what they're doing!
At this rate we might be out of a playoff seed in two weeks.

Maybe Bass was playing like crap because of uncertainty, and he shows that he plays best when given a clearly defined role as a starter with no worries about being traded.

In other words he has no mental toughness or focus.  Wonder if he's related to Dwight Coward.

He's been struggling all year anyhow.

Poor guy was worried about being traded his entire career b/c he's never been good at rebounding.
