Should Serge even play in this one? I'd give him a rest day. Faried is their starting center, and I'm not sure they will even play Nene.
Go with Siakam, OG, Kawhi, Green, Lowry to start.. and bring Moose in off the bench to give Siakam some rest.
Serge could use a few days off. He looked so gassed against Indiana.

I think this is a good game for him to feast inside. I'd say play him tonight, and have him rest the Dallas game, so he can go back to Toronto tomorrow and have an extended rest until the Bucks game next Thursday (against which he always have great games as well)Last edited by inthepaint; Fri Jan 25, 2019, 01:42 PM.

I really don't think we need Serge to feast. Houston has to play small with Capela out. Siakam/OG should be able to handle Faried/Tucker. And we don't need Serge's 16-18 points to beat them... not with Kawhi playing.
Or maybe the plan is to just give Serge his rest when JV is back in the rotation. Serge has been a huge trooper for us this year.

So realistically yeah I think Serge is only gonna get his "load management" game when JV is back. With JV out, it's incredible how vulnerable this team would be if Serge wasn't here for them. A great soldier for sure.

Harden is every bit the offensive player Kobe was. 2 things. 1. He sucks on defense where Kobe was all nba. 2. He hasnt shown the killer Instinct from regular season to playoffs9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

Hope they go full Belicheck and try to close Harden down with two guys on him all night long... even when he brings the ball up......make the other stiffs beat you.. They can't..There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.
