Guy's absolute garbage and is complaining about his role, which is already too big. I don't want to second guess Ty, but damn...

What is Corbin waiting for? What other excuse does he need to change the lineup? At this point I figure he has license to start Fesenko at shooting guard if he wanted to.

Of the 75 shooting guards on John Hollinger's list, Raja ranks 70th in PER.

I would waive him but I think you could trade him for something at some point.

Why does he play at all? He is not part of the future! This team is going no where but to the lottery? Why would you take away minutes from Hayward and give them to Raja? I love Raja's desire but when you are too old then you are simply too old to play!

why can't we just have decent role players that do their thing every night. It's not like they're expensive or hard to find. A couple guys that can shoot consistently, a good defender, and guys with drive and the desire to win.

It's not like I'm asking for Dwayne Wade. There are plenty of George Hills, Arron Afflalos and Wesley Mathew's in this league.

I agree. His legs are gone. He's no longer an elite defender and has far too many poor games (ie. jumper not falling) at the other end to warrant a starting job. He should play half as much, at the most.

Bell getting minutes over Hayward is an absolute joke right now. Yet Sloan and now Corbin continue to do so. Some coaches really value playing vets over rookies, even at the expense of the team.

he is not that bad, but 10-20 minutes - that's the the max.
Start Hayward.

Is there any doubt that Hayward is our best defender. He's got the length and footspeed to stay in front of most wings, and he can rebound, wnd help the jazz in transition. Raja can't shoot, his defense is gone (see Jesus shuttlesworth) and he isn't a ball handler. Being old isn't a skill. Reward the guy who plays defense, and build for the future while we're at it.

I have absolutely no doubt. He's the one guy who can consistantly stay in front of his man on this team. He's also one of our better ball-handlers. This is what pisses me off. We're actually better with him on the floor. It's not like we just want the rookie to get playing time.
