Lenny forgot Sweetney in overtime

Where was Sweetney? The guy was an animal attacking every rebound in the minutes he played and Lenny doesn't put him in for either overtime. I don't get it. Especially the second one where guys were dragging their tongues on the floor. He could have cleaned up a couple of Houston's misses for easy deuces. Just a thought.....

You gotta understand that no matter what Lenny says, he hates rookies! If he liked rookies, then when he was in Toronto he would have played McGrady. Now look at T-Mac! Sweetney deserved those minutes but it was unlikely from the start that he would get them.

McGrady rookie year was 1997 and Lenny started coaching the Raptors in 2000.

Lenny is the one giving Sweeney minutes. He was stuch on the bench b4 Lenny came to NY.
