Create an excuse as to why Casey plays Andrea 

Post#1 » by YogiStewart » Fri Mar 1, 2013 12:08 am

the "matching up with Luke Walton" excuse was probably the best nugget I've heard in a long time. creativity and humour at its finest.

can YOU come up with a more creative excuse than Coach Casey?

Andrea is the name of the person who jumped in front of a bullet meant for Dwane Casey. That person's last name was Anderson.

We have posters who could run laps around Casey in coming up with creative excuses to play Andrea but i'm afraid they could be turned off by the sarcastic tone of this thread and refuse to participate.

Bargs introduces him to fine Italian women. If no playing time, Bargs sad. If Bargs sad, no Italian women for you

Casey wants to make Anderson and Fields look good on their PER36 stats.

"He's a good shooter, we need spacing - what can i say? We lost the game because we couldn't contain Luke Walton ... Didn't y'all hear how many times Leo said he had 6 assists?"

We need to give him minutes so that he can further develop. Big's take time to develop.

It wouldn't be Jonas in the 4th anyway, it would be Anderson if not Bargnani.

Bargs is secretly the GM. You think BC controls Bargs? It is the opposite. BC is merely the puppet/front for what Bargs tells him and Casey to do. Now this would imply Bargs doesn't have the intellect to run a team well. But Bargs has an IQ of 180 and is a strategical genius. He's intentionally leading the Raps to failure as GM and his reputation into the ground (intentionally tanking on the glass was a stroke of genius he had one night over a glass of wine). He wants to lose and be hated because he is punishing himself for at 16 letting his lover Ramona get executed by his mafia rivals. He survived but feels he deserves to be hated for letting an innocent dove pay the price for his ego and hunger for power, until he can get his revenge.

Bargnani creates spacing. Casey loves spacing.

Bottom line is Andrea has value and he has skill and he is talented.

He just needs to man the F*** UP!!! And haul his ass out of the slump.

Or someone has to go down there and bring him back up

To have a pylon/obstacle on the floor which will make opposing team harder to avoid taking charges.
