If Birch is backing up Vuc, that means no Bamba.

Absolutely no way in hell, for the now or for the future, Aminu should be starting over Okeke. Limit his minutes from the starting spot if that's still a concern.

PG dribbles ball up, quick pass to Vuc, Vuc dribble handoff to Evan, Evan shoots or drives, I think I've seen this play before... Man I'm ready for something different

Yep Birch in for Vuc, so Bamba drops down the bench. I really don't know what more he has to show to get minutes over Birch. So damn short sighted

Does Birch have a better IQ than Mo? Yes, no argument there. Would Mo get a lot of the rebounds that Khem misses because he's too small for the position? Also yes. Tough choice between the two if you want to win IMO. Of course, long term wise, Bamba obviously is the one to play.

On queue, Stewart goes right over Birch to get the rebound. Simply doesn't happen with Mo imo.
