Thibs would have done better, with only 2 more major injuries.

Brown is also messing with the kind of playoff excitement Thibs generated, when we had to turn to untested, unplayed bench dwellers to help us survive. Brown is playing them more, so there will be no great mystery to fascinate us when they're on the floor in the playoffs. Yeah, getting bored from so much winning.


We don't have an exciting bench but, proper preparation prevents poor performance. Run the squad and work with the kids. Have them ready to go if/when they are needed. There is a long season and no reason not to work your bench into playoff shape. Thibs was terrible with this.

There you go, increasing the boring wins, ruining the mystery about our bench players that we've grown so accustomed to in the past handful of years. What fun is it when you know you have bench players who can help create victories? I want to see if JB can still stand on his legs after a few 48 minute playoff games. Don't ruin my fun!

We suck. First round exit. Might as well trade everyone and tank.

I'm agreeing with you. Play Kolek Mo D and Huk and see where they go. No one else worth mentioning right now. McC injured all the time. Pac is a ghost. I would like to see a little more Tosan as well but, with Clarkson and Yabu here...it will be hard enough getting minutes for the other guys if everyone is healthy.

I mentioned this the other day. Brunson also missed 2 games. Hart with a hook finger. KAT missed a game. Yabu and KAT were playing injured to start the season as well. Mitch also on minutes restirctions. We have faced quite a bit of adversity to begin the season under a new HC and improved. Good sign so far.

Kudos to Mike Brown for not shortening the rotations like Thibs used to. He hasn't been perfect but, he's been flexible and getting better results across the board. It's great to see we improved and didn't regress under a new HC. Only goes to show why many of us wanted Thibs gone.
