but now that Atkins and Carter are both healthy

You think Atkins is healthy? He doesn't look it, but if he is.. the FO majorly f*cked up signing him. He has sucked horribly.


Yeah, he's healthy, he's just not a 100% yet.

Carter didn't come back and start playing great. Neither did Nene. He needs time to get back to game speed, but he is healthy enough to play.

Healthy enough to brick shot after shot and not play D, you mean?

Well, they might have made an ok move, but now that it's not going so well, what's the follow up action? This FO seems timid to make any further moves after trading for AI. It's like if the parts they have break, oh well.

Why is Chucky to be all and end all for the 3pt shot? We've got a bench.....they all have an opportunity to be big shots. Test them.

Well, if we picked up Bobby Jones, I'm willing to bet he would immediately see minutes at backup SF.

We have Bobby Simmons who is showing some signs of life lately, but he's limited in minutes still coming back from an injury. Desmond Mason is out for another 6 weeks probably.


I hear your guys frustrations about Karl and rookies.

I think Michael Redd played about 35 minutes the whole year his rookie year under Coach Karl.

But Joel Pryzbilla was our starting center when he was a rookie.

Maybe you see the correlation some of you were talking about.

The guy definitely deserves some playing time in this league as he is a very solid all around player.


No he isn't. He's a very good defender but still made his fair share of mistakes. But that's about it. He's below average offensively. Below average passer. Below average rebounder.
