While I believe that Oden is the future center of this team and was deserving of most of the time he got yesterday, does anyone else feel like Joel would have been effective yesterday toward the end of the game?
Joel only played 16 minutes all night and we could have used a steadier hand at the end of the game when a few rebounds and passes were tipped out by Oden. Those extra possessions would surely have given us a greater chance at closing out the Clippers.
This has happened a few times now in this span of time that we've been losing games. Thus, I wonder if Nate is leaving Greg out there on purpose in order to boost his confidence or if he really just feels that Greg was playing that much better than Joel.
Hell, the way Blake was playing, I would rather have had Joel at the line shooting free throws.
