You can't stop the players from playing hard for their next contracts, but you can take a pile of bad time outs, bad/early challenge calls, bad substitutions, etc. If we're not careful, we'll leapfrog past the Nets, Philly, and the Spurs.
Keep playing the rookies and resting the vets. Hell, give Temple more burn.

We should play RJ as the back up PG to see what he has there. The RJ/Dick back court would be weak defensively but if we can see RJ being a decent back up PG it would give us a lot of option next season.
Poeltl / Robinson
Barnes / Mogbo
RJ / Walter
Dick / Agbaji
IQ / RJ / Shead
An 11 man rotation of the above should give us a good idea on who we can rely on as offensive creators and initators. I would also like to see 4/5 pick and rolls between Barnes and the big man we're playing (Poeltl/Mogbo/Robinson). A good 4/5 pick and roll will give us a lot of options against big line ups like the Cavs next season.

Unless Quick is injured, Shead is the backup Pg. Upon injury I am sure RJ can do it though. Perhaps if/when they start sitting people we will see it. Perhaps pair RJ with Walter or Ochai and see how they defend the other team's guards, I agree RJ and Dick as the two guards will not work defensively at the moment.
