Monta has always been a bit of a Rocket killer but that shot was crazy and to make it worse it was off of a missed rebound attempt from the Rockets.

 

I blame McHale to an extent in this one though I don't understand why he continues to let Delfino play PF at the ending of games. The Wizards realized that mismatch at the ending of  our last game and Okafor backed Delfino up into a foul. This game we needed a rebound to at least take the game to OT and we have no rebounders other than Asik in. D-Mo was actually having a solid game scoring, passing, and rebounding I don't understand why he wasn't in at that time. I would have even preferred T-Rob  even though he didn't do much.

After today I'm actually considering it  :lol:

 

Lol. 

 

As for playing Delfino at the 4, its our best lineup easily. Therefore it only makes sense to close the game out with it especially on a night where Asik is hauling in 22 rebounds anyways. 

 

Eventually I'm sure Motiejunas will be the one closing out games but I'm not going to bash McHale for keeping him out late in the game when its his first career start (and only a few games since he's joined the rotation).

I don't have a problem with Delfino playing the 4 occasionally but for these last 2 games I didn't like it in those situations.

 

I'm not bashing McHale at all I think he's been doing good this season and I also understand that its going to take some time for guys like D-Mo and T-Rob to adjust to this team. I just would have liked to see D-Mo finish the game out today with the way he was playing I'm sure he could have got close to double double. It is what it is though he still has to pay his dues but he's come around nicely.

Delfino has been playing hurt these past 3-4 games and on an average night from him, that lineup is money. 

 

We probably would have been better off with him on the floor, just having another 7 footer when the ball was getting tipped around in the final minute could have saved us the game but hindsight is 20-20. When the game is on the line gotta go with whats proven to work. 

 

I've been hyped about Motiejunas for about 5 years now lol. Trust me, no one else wants him on the court more than I do and its terrific to see him producing like this as a rookie.

The whole team has been dealing with there fair share of injuries this year but I agree the lineups good when everyone is executing.

 

Agreed. However I'm now over this game luckily Utah, Portland, and Dallas lost tonight but the Rockets aren't doing themselves any favors by losing to teams like the Bucks (there good but this game was winnable , Wizards, and Kings. Hopefully we don't lose to Orlando our next game and maybe LA loses to Minnesota some how.

 

I'm glad to see him producing as well. Really glad to see him hustle and go after the boards the way he did today.
