shannon brown 

Post#1 » by truthbtold21 » Sun Nov 30, 2008 1:58 pm

Im not sure whats going on with this guy and his mins. One min he's in the rotation and now last game he got 20sec and aganist boston he's inactive,the kid can play basketball he showed that when he got he time to play,he plays defense and he gets buckets.Ammo and caroll are not hittin right now why not give shannon some of those min and see what he can do with them.I tend to find myself scratching my head sometimes with larry brown,he says he wants to put the best 5 guys on the court and then i see ammo and caroll on the court at the same time and they are not producing,why are they still getting these min.

Swish being back is pretty much going to soak up any mins that Shannon was getting. Also, he and Felts play a very similar role, it's just that Felts is much better at doing it.

Ammo and Hammer bring a different dimension than Shannon can.

LB said he's ultimately going with a 9 man rotation, so unless something happens I imagine a lot of guys are going to see minimal/no minutes. Add in that we have so many wings then he'll probably seldom see the light of day.

I do like Shannon Brown tho.

i have no problem giving shannon all of carroll's minutes. shannon has been the better player, so far, this season.

his actions say otherwise. so far, LB has been more likely to play all 12 than to play 9.

LB has been sporadic w/ everyone on the bench's minutes this season, except dj and ammo. hollins, nazr, dudley, shannon, carroll, anjinca etc... i never know who is going to play. and even when they come in there is no telling how long they will stay in the game.

Notice the word "ultimately".

Heh, not trying to be a donkey Fats, just putting out what Bonnell reported LB said. Since most everyone on the bench except DJ has been so inconsistent it makes sense that he hasn't been able to narrow it down to 9 players.

I agree about giving Brown Hammer's minutes, but I wonder if we can afford to just toss him to the pine...esp. since we're looking to make a trade. Of course in the time he is getting he's not helping that cause any.
