He already gets significant playing time. What he needs is more shots


Get as many shat attempts for Scottie as possible...

Hmmm….. I agree that he might look good as our star 6th man. But he’s not trash, he has one of the smoothest strokes in the league and is a rabid defender.
I would say he doesn't belong as a starter.. volume scorer and takes chances on defence to get his steals stance to inflat. As it has.

I agree his style of play is more suited to a sixth man Lou will type. He fan be instant offense off the bench snd can hijack it all he wants. In spurts and when he gets hot he's a microwave.

That being said I agree we need a different starter. His ball stopping just kills the chemistrycand fluidity. There's already too many mouths to feed and too many egos on the starting lineup as it is.

I'd honestly prefer a bigger lineup of fvv/og/scottie/pascal/birch.

Just a lot more fundamentals and unselfishness

Doesn't Masai know Nick Thibodeau will run his starters into the ground trying to win every game? That means you need a capable bench. Good thing we have Dragic eating up so much of our salary cap. :roll:

hate to say it, but I suspect this will get ugly quick. Missing too many good players.
