Five Games in Six Days - Ouch 

Post#1 » by hands11 » Thu Mar 11, 2010 5:15 am

This could get ugly. Or just like we usually do, we could do the opposite of what everyone is expecting. Way I see it our only long shot hope of looking decent is playing Shaun. He is the only player I think can have that kind of larger effect because....THIS TEAM NEEDS A PG.

Adding a pure PG can have a large ripple effect. Foye and Nick could play a lot better as SG as will other players getting the ball in position after the offense it set up properly. Maybe even MM will decide to shoot if someone gets him the ball wide open.

I really want Shaun to start or get in the rotation at the 6 minute first quarter mark.

Thu, Mar 11 Atlanta
Fri, Mar 12 @ Detroit
Sat, Mar 13 Orlando - touch to get them after a back to back
Mon, Mar 15 @ Utah
Tue, Mar 16 @ Denver - could be a slaughter

Then

Fri, Mar 19 @ Portland
Sun, Mar 21 @ LA Lakers

One of the games(ATL I think) was rescheduled from when there was the huge snowstorm.

Boy they're going to get whipped in Denver. The 5th game in 6 nights. I'd like to see them play well out here, but I doubt it will happen.

5 games in 6 days would make me think we'll see LESS of Shaun. He gets extensive icing and treatment done after each game, I wouldn't be surprised if he gets quite sore the day after. He might catch a couple DNPs in this stretch. No need to reaggravate that horrific injury and set yourself back again.

Well maybe this forces Flip to use a deep rotation... or by the time the Denver game rolls around our players will be playing with oxygen masks.

I was gonna say, we better get a look at the D-League guy.....but Flip loves his tight rotation.

Actually 11 games in 15 nights.

Pre-Game they said. Phil and Buck said 3 in 3 hasn't happened since 2000

Don't know, NBTW... 2007 was when Shaun had the injury. It's 2010 now. He appears to be quite able out there to me and I thought he could have played more.

Are there any rehabilitive nightmares concerning his recovery akin to Gilbert?

If there isn't, then signing Shaun might turn out to be blue chip for Ernie *gasp!*
