When Thibs subbed in JFT and Taj for Tyus and Jaric with 3-4 mins left I told my boys that we are now losing the game based on that substitution. He also took out OKG for Wiggins. The team that was in there was just rolling, but Thibs sticks to his strict substitution patterns no matter what. Who in their right mind would think that the best group to close out that game was JFT, Rose, Wiggs, Taj and KAT?? Basically, he started Rose in place of Cov. What he should have done is started OKG in place of Cov, and kept Rose in his normal 6th man role. stupid, stupid, stupid Thibs doesn't adapt or adjust. He just follows his plan and figures it will work. If you're getting lit up by Dame and CJ, but have Tyus and Okogie on the bench... And playing Taj bit him in the ass for the millionth time. You're letting Nirkic play to all his strengths. Pyt KAT and Saric out there and Portland likely has to pull Nurk as he can't guard either guy on the perimeter.
