When those two things happen, we usually lose games if Fisher continues to play them, while we have energy and athletes on the bench......Seraphin to me is better than Rolo. If Seraphin got paid like Rolo, he would be the starter. Seems like Rolo is starting because Phil knows best. I'm ok with that. But at the same time, you have to be able to pull him early, if matchups aren't in our favor.
This will be a good test for this team.....Up 20 and now it's single digits.
Rolo made a big play by blocking Rubio on his drive to the hoop.
Galloway looks to be out of whatever funk he was in. Played really great overall game tonight.
On a side note, this kid Levine can really ball!
TWolves have some talent. Much better job of building than Philly!!!

And some people on this board was against adding this guy.....? Because he doesn't have a mid range jumper which is needed for the triangle? It shouldn't matter what system we play, if a guys can flirt with quadruple doubles every game....
he certainly doesn't do it every game.
and did you hear Breen - Rubio shoots 51% in the first quarter... and 25% in quarter two thru four. 37% overall.
What are you laughing at KAT after your AND 1? You're going back home with an L!
Towns sort of owning KP here in the 4th.

You've been waiting all night to find something to complain about but it's still funny how you can try to blame Fisher for these guys playing horrible on both sides of the court in that 3rd quarter and Fish has nothing at all to do with that.
Fish motivates the team during half time speechs...
Fish decided to bring back the same slow starting lineup....
Fish did not pull Rolo when it was obvious that he couldn't guard Towns on those 3 pt shots....
D.Fisher must just have a horrible basketball mind then right?? Come on now. I'm sure he has his reasons for having the lineups he chooses out there and not one single person on a message board knows what those reasons are.
Fisher is just coaching like Phil did in LA. Whenever teams went on runs, Phil left his players in the handle it themselves. I always thought that was wrong, but it was a great way to let the team learn how to play through it. I just don't think that strategy should be in place for a team learning how to gel together.
D.Fisher is a very very smart man. He knows basketball like nobody on here could ever even think about knowing basketball but i think sometimes we forget that this team isn't a great team and they still have a ton of learning to do with playing with each other.
You are correct, but so do pretty much all coaches...It doesn't make them invulnerable to bad decision making.
But that's the point that people don't seem to realize is that every coach doesn't always make the right moves but people come down on Fisher like he's the only one.
Jose needs to be in for ft purposes

LOL, Melo gets no respect from the refs.
