So we opt to put in our smallest player on our team to make his first start of the season?
You start Roberts with Gordon out so you can put Holiday at the 2 to match up with Harden, which worked well. Houston size creates a problem down low, starting Roberts at the 1 doesn't change that.

And you know he didn't?

Never mind the advanced strategies of Hack-a-Dwight which Monty would never EVER be able to comprehend.
At what point would we hack-a-Dwight? It was a back and forth game that got away from us in the final 2 minutes.

Feel free to come in and blast us for questioning our coach when you didn't even watch the game.
There is no questioning of the coach, it's constant demanding he be fired. TigerinATL was spot on with his assesment here. There's no actually critiquing of Monty, just constant bitching by posters that blame every loss of the coach.
It's evident this team is improving, but it's the NBA. Every loss doesn't need to be followed with a fire Monty thread, especially coming after one of the toughest stretches of the schedule.

How does this make any logical sense? Let me put someone small in to make sure that Harden guards Holiday on D too? All it did was force Jrue to have one of his worst nights in a Pelicans uniform on offense by the way, whatever starting Roberts actually accomplished.
Yes, Jrue put on a clinic for how to guard Harden, but Roberts did not need to be put onto Lin for that to happen. You did notice that Roberts was never the person asked to crash down and double Dwight, right? When he was in the game, we actually didn't double Dwight at all very often. Why? I'd assume Roberts inability to guard anyone on the floor minus Jeremy Lin has something to do with that.
