Sucks that we're injured, but I like the idea of Ellington getting a chance. I think he'll do well.

Just put that man on the 3 pt line and get him 20 shots. Make it Wayne!

rather see him than brewer, but wes hopefully will get the bulk of the minutes.

Arguably our best dribbling/creating wing. I like it

I think Brewer is best starting at SG, as Ellington can provide efficient scoring off the bench and would most likely play more minutes anyway. If Johnson is healthy enough to play in the opener, I would expect him to back up Beasley.

I think Brewer is better as energy off the bench.

Your face is better as energy off the bench!

If Evans was playing Wayne would not be starting because of the physical mismatch.

I think Johnson (if healthy) gets the start.

You predicted Webster would have back surgery? Wow.

No, just that Ellington would start a game.

I think I actually like Ellington starting. That way Beasley doesn't have to be the only starter who can create his own offense.

Eh, Ellington really isn't very good at creating his offense.

I'm not a huge Ellington guy, but I still think it's good that he's getting a shot at the front line ... I wouldn't say he can create, but he does put the ball on the floor now and then. He's a fairly reliable player and he can certainly get in a groove both mid-range and long-range - something that helps us space the floor. Overall, a low-risk player that seems to understand his role.
