Why are we not playing faried

As long as we don't utilize that small non-sense lineup. We need Capela, Nene or Faried out there at all times.

Why the hell is Shumpert out there?

Rockets need to do a better job finishing. Plenty of AND1 opportunities.

I mean, that was a pretty badass game. I don't know how much hope I have for winning the series after that, but there's still a shot.

Gordon and Tucker were MVPs tonight. We need Gordon's best offensive game to even remotely beat the Warriors. That worries me, but we will see how they play in Game 4. It's a must win situation.

First time I've ever seen someone answer their own question 20 minutes before they even asked it. :lol:

But seriously, Faried is an amazing energy and hustle guy but his defensive awareness is notably lacking.
In some situations you can get away with that if the hustle outweighs the defensive shortfall. This tooth-and-nail series against the Warriors probably isn't one of those situations.
As Chris Paul has reiterated frequently, to beat the Warriors it's not enough to just play harder, you have to play smarter.

Make no mistake, both of these coaches (and teams) understand that any one of these games, and consequently the series, could turn on just a couple of possessions so there's a high level of gamesmanship going on regarding rotations and substitution patterns.
