Very nice defensive minutes for Hamilton

hahahahaha

Im liking justin hamilton. Good pick up. Bud showing signs of life and getting us back in the game!

That was a "Harden" by Kmart

If Flip isn't going to play Wiggins and Rubio, is this team going to be watchable?

I really didn't think Flip would do it, but the tank is REALLY ON. I realize the bench got us back in the game, but to me it is clear that Flip has no intention of winning games right now.

I don't read it that way so much as it was Flip sending a message to the starters that if the bench is going to outplay them they he'll just let them play. Of course if winning isn't high on his list of priorities then he shouldn't be playing the Budster!

Yeah, that was not exactly the try-to-win lineup to close out the half. We'll see what he does if the game is in the balance at the end...

Good point, SP. The bench did outplay the starters.

Benched played well, we always bitch (including myself) about to long of a leash well flip played the guys who have earned it so far
