If Noah's injury isn't as seriously as everyone thought it was, then he should start to play more and at least be the 4th quarter man. Play the **** guy. He's going to be great for the clips defensively so we will need him to be in a rhythm. I'm just not sure I buy his story that "yeah, I hurt my Achilles but I didn't rupture it but I needed surgery anyway" kinda thing.

If you don't trust zu, please trust noah. Former DPOY. He may not be able to be DPOY noah, but he's going to be solid and in some cases, more solid than zubac. Don't be stupid, Doc. There's a championship at stake.

Trezz called for the clearout on at least one of them, making it unlikely Doc called for it.

Trez should have been benched ASAP for that. Instead Doc encouraged his selfish play by ignoring it.

Love Trez but I don't want to see him waving off the team for a clear out ever again. The biggest issue is not playing Reggie over Lou Will late in the game. Reggie is looking like the guy that could put us over the top the way he's playing since joining the team

I don't punish sins of aggressiveness. Trezz will have learned his lesson on his own and our problem was not Trezz, it was the rest of the team not named Kawhi, Paul or Montrezl, who shot 9 for 45.

As for burying the reigning 6MOY who's carried us through thick and thin all season for Reggie after one week with the team, down by 7, mileage can reasonably vary.
