Stephen Graham should get more playing time.

He looks pretty good in limited minutes. We aren't going anywhere, let the kid ball.

He has played very well in his minutes, but you have to remember he plays behind Granger and Williams. There really isn't much time to go around. However, with his good play, maybe this will open Bird's ears to trade talks with Shawne Williams. If we package Williams with some people we could get a good draft pick and not lose much of a step with Granger and Graham.

i agree with the two posts. i have not been a big SW fan based on his defense. i agree that it takes reps to gain confidence and get better, but it seems to me that graham has it along with a nice 3 ball. i have been impressed with his play both on and off the court.

with that said, anyone interested in an autographed SW picture?

Stephen has played exceptionally well whenever he's gotten minutes. His stats projected over extended minutes look great. In the 86 minutes he's played this season, he's scored 71 points. Now my math could be wrong but I figure that to be 39 points per 48 minutes. Not to mention he's shooting 61% from the field, including 54% on 3's and 83% from the charity stripe. He also doesn't commit an abundance of fouls or turnovers in his time on the court.

In short....

STEPHEN GRAHAM FOR MVP!!!

Stephen has played well in limited minutes. However, who would you like to take minutes away from to let Stephen play? Danny? Shawne? Mike? Kareem?

I personally would completely phase out Marquis Daniels and play more Graham along with Diener in the backcourt on occasion. The way Travis penetrates the D and kicks out Stephen could benefit tremendously with the accuracy that he's been shooting with. I don't see any reason why Stephen shouldn't be getting 10-15 minutes a game.
