look at bradley..they guy most hated....played him..and look at him now....sooo..play JJJ.....and play him even if he messes up a little...then pass to him..play him with rondo and kg..not scrub time...you'll see..!
has played JJJ....he sucks and isnt ready to play in the league yet.
Well, maybe not you..but that is what 80% here said about bradley and steamer......
Bradley wasn't ready to play in the league last year, and Steamer's been pretty solid ever since he's been here.
Bradley started off the same..it wasn't until doc played him more and more that he turned the corner....his D was the same as last year......he just finally got game confidence....i always liked brad's game, and loved the steamer...!
maybe we can talk after jjj plays overseas and in the d-league, then. That was a big part of Stiemer and LAb's development.
Well..there isn't much we can do about this..because he doesn't play..and hasn't.....so no one has enough data points to add up to a fair decision.....still, i think for team safety, we should have either hollis or jjj played in...as a "ready" backup...we onlt have kg and steam in that catagory now for a BIG playoff run....that isn't enough in my book. Especialyy when they are already HERE..!!!
In the games hes played, hes sucked, thats why Doc no longer plays him. That combined with the fact that he shortened the roation to his playoff rotation means that the only guys that get any minutes will be players that he trusts in the playoffs.
Well, opinion....not fact...rookies usually always "suck" till the team accepts them, they get confidence from the team AND coach....then they turn the corner...his shooting is his key in.....think about the idea of only 2 playing 7 footers....steam gets a lot of fouls....not really his fault...but.....shortening the roster is when you can....and not having any back up is just dumb.
What do you mean by having no Back-up? We have Steamer and Hollins as our two backup bigs.
It seems that you just really like JJJ and want him to play and I can understand that, but if you were Doc and your team was old and competing for its last title, would you say "hey, instead of playing the normal roation, im gonna play JJJ and we might lose the game but its good for his experience?"
Id rather just play proven guys and develop JJJ in the future.
