So KG is resting, Blatche is back, but Evans gets the start.
I'll never understand these coaches' infatuation with playing Reggie, let alone starting him. He's supposed to "anchor" our defense tonight? Oh boy...
I can't understand starting Evans either.
Also, I don't know why KG is sitting. This is not a back to back. The same thing happened the 2nd time we played the 76ers. Completely overlooked the team. We had a game two days prior and weren't playing the Pacers till 3 days after, but the decision to sit KG so he could rest for the game against the Pacers; so he can start in a game we got blown out in. The Nets ended up losing that game at the 76ers by a point. Who knows what happens with KG, he's not a huge difference maker, but I still think it sends the wrong message.
Cannot overlook teams like the 76ers, the Cavs. Pierce summed it up best when he said we are a bottom feeder ourselves. I think Kidd is sitting KG in games he believes the team can win without him. I believe its an issue that he's not taking every team seriously and is overlooking teams.
