I thought about that, putting in your rebounders and calling a timeout. But Nellie never calls timeout. They’ve won a couple games this year (Monta’s game-winner vs. Nets, Baron’s game-winner at Seattle) by not calling timeouts and just running. That’s his philosophy.

your point is valid, you go with what are your best options. however, specific situations can dictate certain deviations. at the end of the lakers game, with 10-11 secs left, one timeout remaining and kobe shooting ft’s, he certainly could have inserted biendrins and powell. once the rebound was secured, they call timeout, and have a chance to set up a game-tying shot with ample time left on the clock. it would be a little harder for odom to reach over either of them and tip the ball back to himself, as he did when jr was attempting to block him out.
