novak isnt going anywhere, allows us to space the floor and is a great weapon off the bench.

He's had plenty of good looks, and has been bricking 'em.

So if he's not gonna get minutes when Amare comes back and Camby get's in the mix, why would we trade him? So we can get another player who won't get minutes?
Either way I'm not trading Novak. Id rather have a specialist on the bench than just another body

Novak is a 6'10 3pt shooter. One of the best in the league
Every team needs one, including this team

He ain't going no where and I don't want him going anywhere. Besides you're acting like Camby and Amare are dependable to be healthy until the very end. Novak's role will increase as the year progresses. Felton's making noise around the league now so teams will prepare to take him away and close out on the pick n roll ... that is going to open it up for Novak. Melo's passing is getting better and JR still is going to settle down. We're benefiting from Kidd and JR hitting at a ridiculous clip from beyond the stripe. Our best shooter is Novak ... we're not even 10 games in. Lets things settle in. Also lets not act like he's not the reason we beat Miami in the first game. He shot 6-10 beyond the arc in that game. Miami has a problem defending off the ball screens and so does Boston. Boston tends to leave shooters wide open especially bigger 3 point shooters. Novak's value will show up .... chill out.

Yes, I agree.....
Normally for playoffs you need only 8-9 players.... but if you have versality you can choose between players... and you can always use a good shooter.... even for only 5-10 minutes.....

Novak isn't going anywhere. I LOVE THE GUY. He's been in a slump but he's a too good of a shooter to not get back to his usual percentage.
By the way we're complaining about his shooting and he's making 38% of his threes. That's pretty good,especially because he's taking a lot of contested threes.

Novak will play somehow. We need him to stretch floor.

Yeah it's funny, his slump is still better than most....

The part that people miss is that Novak has been playing far better defense during the last few games. He's a lot less of a defensive liability, which means you can keep him on the floor, even when his shot is not falling.
