Would we be better off having Wilcox, JJJ and Stiemsma split JO's minutes?

JO does 1 good thing for every 3 bad things he does and sucks all of the energy out of everyone. I thought the Pacers were even targeting JO on defense today.

Stiemsboat, JJJ and Wilcox all have the ability to spark it up. Is giving up size really that big of a deal right now with JO doing nothing?

Honestly, I'd rather have Bass and JJJ splitting a lot of KG's minutes.

KG did okay today I thought. JO has been consistently useless.

JO had 12 rebs tonight. If did that consistently I'd be fine with him.

Well, that's probably not going to happen consistently.

[PosImpos]

yes.  id play JO ten to fifteen minutes a game and play KG 25 to 30 at most.  let the other guys split the minutes.

No it's not. Steamer brings more energy which that position needs the most right now.

JO is not the sole problem. With Wilcox out Doc needs to take a really look at getting JjJ more minutes with either JO or KG at center. Playing Stiemsma and JjJ at the same time is not the answer. Start Steimsma if you have to but get JjJ out there and let him run with Rondo

Certainly he is not but he is a big part of it. After the initial sequence of blocks and goodies and wave of positive impact, JO regresses so, so much. The big three are old too but they're far more threatening to the other team consistently. The team looks old and we need sparks to keep the fire alight.

Not sure how Wilcox and JJJ are going to do any better.

They can at least somewhat run and jump, which is needed for basketball.

  Gerald Green and Kedrick Brown say hello.
