Benching Time? 

Post#1 » by The Sheik » Thu Dec 18, 2008 3:22 am

CJ needs to be taught a lesson. Im not sure if Brewer needs to also be benched or not. I think CJ needs to be benched for Korver and learn to earn his minutes back. I only want this to happen if its Korver because no more Mo Nutz starting or getting minutes. Or go with Price. Just because you're a starter doesnt mean you get to stop working. As much as Memo is a big problem on the boards...as is the Harpring, AK, Sap lineup...CJ and Ronnie dont go to the glass on either end.

thoughts?

I thought it was a brilliant move tonight, especially given the outcome of the game. Even DWill needs it now and then. CJ has let his early success get to his head I think. He is getting very lazy, taking a terrible jumpshot with 9 on the shot clock probably sealed his fate. It's too bad because I liked where he was headed, hopefully he will respond well to this benching. I didn't get to watch the first half, but that's what I was hearing on the radio broadcast. I don't know what went on with Brew though.

I like the idea, but I don't think we have a personnel. Korver showed in Philly, that he is not good as a starting option.
What about starting Price or Almond (since Jerry is still going to give them minutes)?

Was going to post the same thing. He hasn't earned it.

At least until Boozer gets back, we should have Korver and AK starting and reduce Brewer and CJ's minutes until they start deserving them again.
