Tmac from 2003 maybe. 2013 tmac? Unless Manu is limping, no.
No, on the other hand, Danny Green has held Curry to 2 of 20 shooting, total for the entire time that Danny's been on him this series. Danny played 44 of 58 in game 1 (~34 minutes in regular time), 32 out of 48 in game 2, and 33 minutes tonight. Meanwhile Kwahi is playing 40+ a night. Danny's not significantly older than Kawhi, he can handle 40 a night. I could deal with less Gary Neal, and Manu playing some point, (8 a sf, 8 at sg, and x at pg) to get more Green on Curry as a matchup...Curry's played 40+ each game, and is shooting 34 of 58 on everyone but Danny.
Clamping down on Steph Curry makes those a long 32/33 minutes. If he doesn't have the stamina to do it at a high level for 40+, I'd rather have him get a little more rest along the way than have him wear out down the stretch and give Curry an easier time when it matters most. I'd also like to see him not completely wiped out going into the WCFs.Quote:

I'm sure he'll play some during victory time but unless he gets base time with the key 9 rotation, then he's relegated to the bench.
And what Neal does isn't free styling?Quote:

I am OK with him getting some minutes but I am talking no more then five minutes to give Manu or Kawhi some breathing time. This series is been a fast paced endurance test and you can tell some of our players are getting gassed. I also would like CoJo to get some more minutes for Tony he is is the engine to this team and I think he needs an oil change at this point.
I can say this if when we play the Heat/Memphis or OAK. we will need him more then Neal.

He cannot possibly be worse than Matt freakin Bonner. I don't understand this. If it's a huge failure ore doesn't work out for some reason, then you can pull him. But what was the point in signing him if you're just going to make him ride the pine the entire playoffs? I don't see what's holding him back. Maybe he creates a mismatch since they're playing small-ball. He could post up a smaller defender easily. Worst case, he misses a couple shots and you pull him.
