    They probably want it to goto 7, and then get luka back in Game 6. Reeves will be back in game 4 watch.

    If Holiday is off for the night that's fine...but he's unplayable if he's going to brick his shots.

    Not saying its wrong to play him but if he's having one of those nights I'd rather see someone else.
