Hell, I even said it last year and over the summer. Only problem was Nene didn't want to play center and putting him at back up PF to Ves or Booker would have taken some real balls and foresight from a coach.
Question is, is he playing back up center right now or is he backing up at PF. In a way it doesn't matter. We don't have true centers as such. Kind of PF/C hybrids. Its more about getting combined atheism, rebounding, BBIQ, scoring, size, etc out of the two front court player combos. As long as it add up, it works.
Your idea of me having hindsight is you not agreeing with something I posted at the time, it coming true and then me pointing it out. That isn't hindsight my friend.
I'm not talking about the concept of Nene coming off the bench. We both have advocated that for a long time.
I'm talking about your conviction that Randy should have started Vesely in the 3rd quarter in the Boston game. The 20/20 part is you looking at the numbers after the game, noting that Booker didn't play well, and then asserting that you were right. It could just as easily have turned out that Booker had an awesome 3rd quarter. Randy has no way of knowing that at half time. All he can do is play his better player, and that's Booker.
Wait, you want Randy to play the statistics and the odds? Not a fan's gut feeling? (sarcasm intended)
