DS, JP, DC, JS, CK
« on: February 20, 2010, 10:59:58 PM »
Those five are our best players.  Yet they are rarely on the floor all at the same time.  I did notice that "the 5" were on the court together during a stretch tonight, in that stretch we were very dominant.  Do you think that we will see these five out there together more often as the season as tourney time approaches?

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

No, that would be horrible.  Have you seen when none of those 5 are on the court?  Ouch.  So putting them all on at once would assume more Irving/McGrudes/Energy/JHR/Judge combos.   :flush:

yeah this isn't the nba where you have your A team that goes against the other team's A team, then both coaches mutually agree to put their suck players on the court at the same time, at least that's what my lbbiq picks up from watching my 2 nba games a year

It depends on the opponent.  For KU, yes.  For the others, no.

Jamar comes off the bench not because of ability.  If he is out there with mostly a 2nd unit, you have less talented post help (Judge/JHR) which means he can provide scoring in the post.  Also, DC/JP are rarely both in with Jamar so one can rest and the other doesn't feel too much pressure.  The NBA has kinda started  to go with this strategy (3rd or so best scorer off the bench).  Spurs do it with Ginobili and Pistons wanted Iverson to be that guy before his tantrum.

Jam also comes off the bench b/c its a good way to protect him from an early cheap foul.  Similar strategy that Huggs used with Cartier.

Don't let DLew12 see this. You'll have to sit through 45-minutes of his barely-coherent rambling about Luis being the best big we have, by far.

Clearly Frank is sandbagging and doesn't want to demonstrate the truly explosive potential of his team prior to March Madness.  Very smart.   :driving:
