Rose just sometimes misses free throws. I think there was a game where he was under 50% or something. He's not bad, and more often than not he'll make at least 1 of 2 clutch free throws, but it doesn't surprise me when he misses both.

How can you expect a guy who was probably working at Quiznos 24 hours prior to make 2-of-2 free throws with the game on that line?

Thibodeau already admitted that he made a mistake in having Lucas on the floor, so you can save your time in your attempts to defend his decision.

exactly if coach wouldnt have put jl3 in we would have another w.......or if korver would have held on the ball after the 1st melo miss either way the L is on coach T & the trip will blow up if we dont beat sac

Lucas killed this game but I feel sorry for the guy. Bogans should have been in there.

I gave Thibs a bit of a pass on the NY game, though most people were ripping him a new one, but I understood why he took that chance & didn't crucify him for it when it didn't work out.

But this, this is entirely different. There's no logic that defends this decision. Thibs subbed in a player who not only hadn't played a single NBA game in 3 years, but hadn't played in the game since the 5 min mark of the 2nd quarter!!! Yes FT's are FT's, you should hit them at every level, but pressure situations are a different monster. What Thibs told me with that move is, "I trust this trash heap scrub more than I do my starting SG to make a FT or pass." He dropped the ball completely, just like Korver on the loose ball, but in the words of Adam Sandler, YOU BLEW IT!!!

The Melo shot at the end should not have been hard to guard. He took one dribble, no real move and took and jump shot. When Melo has the ball and there is only 4 seconds you have to know thats coming.

Deng gave him way to much space. You know hes going to take a jumper after he takes one step...just contest the shot and Bulls win.
