What makes you guys think he can't start? He isn't THAT undersized, considering he is 6'1 and 6'2 isn't considered undersized. His defense isn't as bad as Tinsley's, and he just had a bad shooting night. Plus, he is an O'Brien point guard, he plays off ball, can pass, and not to mention shoot. His defense isn't as bad as some think. Plus, he is faster than advertised. Whats not to like?darkflashfox wrote:diener is our backup pg of the future imo.

poor sample size, poor shooting as of late, needs some more quickness, and while he's like dunleavy, we need some athelticism at the pg spot.

His ankle is hurting him, so his shooting needs to be excused. Plus, he hasn't been playing regularly except for lately. Plus, he is very fast, I don't know where you get at saying he needs to be quicker. We need athletecism a lot, but we can't just rule him out because of that.darkflashfox wrote:poor sample size, poor shooting as of late, needs some more quickness, and while he's like dunleavy, we need some athelticism at the pg spot.

He is better than Tinsley at everything but dribbling. Honestly, that is the only thing that I can think of that Tinsley might be better at. Better shooter, faster, better defender (by a hair), better looking, more fun to watch, better shot selection, better free throw shooter, offense flows better with him in, more of a fan favorite, doesn't get in trouble, what else does he need to be better at ?notque wrote:The Diener starting talk is way too early. That being said, Rush starting was way too early, so whatever!

You seem to have good luck, so go for it!

Tinsley's a better passer, but I agree that Diener does what the offense needs. He drives to the lane w/ passing on his mind FIRST, shooting second, which is what we need from our starting PG, especially if we're gonna stay w/ this small lineup and have Danger, Dunleavy, and Rush on the perimeter.
Trade Tinsley for any PG who can penetrate and dish... I saw Arroyo a while back, even Ridnour. We need that on a night-to-night basis from our PG. I still would rather have Rush come off the bench, but he was amazing tonight!
