i agree with the OP. bench hasn't looked good and i don't know why. Is it effort? because on paper, we have one of the BEST benches in the league from top to bottom. we have West (starter quality), BBD (really good 6th man), Jeff Green (starter quality), Wafer (former starter quality), Troy Murphy (a year off a double-double year), and Krstic (poor starter quality). And yet, they are playing less than the sum of their parts.
