Who goes to Inactive List? 

Post#1 » by DC old guy » Sat Dec 5, 2009 7:44 pm

Mike Miller returns from the Inactive List soon. Somebody will have to replace him. It is possible that it will change from game to game, but, generally who from the active roster should become inactive?

When Miller returns, we will have six active guards -- too many. The way Boykins has played, he has to continue on the active roster. He has contributed far more that Foye or DeShawn. Should it be one of them? Or should it be Oberto or McGee?

Let's see.

The following players are guaranteed to be in the rotation:

Arenas
Boykins
Young
Miller
Butler
Jamison
Blatche
Haywood

So Flip needs to pick 4 among:
Foye
Stevenson
DMac
Oberto
McGee

It's a pretty sure thing that Oberto and McGee will be in the rotation because we need the big man depth against guys like Shaq and Dwight. I don't think EG would allow Foye to be bumped off the active roster just because it would kill any trade value he has.

So it boils down to Stevenson or DMac. They're kind of redundant so losing one of them wouldn't be a huge issue. I'm sure most on this board would prefer that Stevenson sit, but odds are, it'll be DMac that sits.

I think it'll flip around between Oberto, Stevenson, and McGuire, depending on matchups and who has been having the better practices.

Is there any indication that Miller is indeed coming back anytime soon? My money is that by the time he's ready, someone else is hurt.
