  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
i can go on green pierce terry crawford running the offense,
i just want bass to stay at the middle, clogged the middle box out, help kg at center, and give us a descent 11 or 15 rebounds a game, shavlik kg bass will cover 4 and 5...a little of green for defensive purposes

i can see pierce having maybe 14-26 fg, also the rest, if tyson was playing, i want a help at PF,

If you want Bass to play center and Grab 11 to 15 rebounds per game I don't know what to tell you.  I don't think you fully understand how our team has been built.

actually this is a jump shooting team, doc love small ball, no legit 7 footer, pick n' pop players...

  Doc lives in a world where small ball is a necessity due to the makeup of his roster. I'm not saying he never plays small ball but he generally likes to get his best players on the court.
+1

Doc was big in 2007-2008, only going small with Posey at the 4 to close out games when he wanted scoring.

Doc also went big in 2008-2009/2009-2010 and talked about how even though he used Posey at the 4 that overall those lineups had been outscored and he wanted to use it less especially with Posey gone.

Heck his primary lineup in 2010-2011 was BBD/KG to the point where he burned BBD out by playing him so much because of the lack of big men depth on the team.

Even this year, with such a depleted core of big men, Doc was starting Jason Collins. If that's not doing everything you can to avoid 'small-ball', I don't what is.

Bass grabbed 10 boards last game.

Thats more than I would ask for.

He played good defense too.

Brandon Bass is not the problem.

It's the rotations. You can't play Bass at Center against Tyson Chandler or K-Mart.

10 rebounds in 32 minutes isn't that great. Especially with 4 points. Maybe if he was 10/10 I wouldn't complain... but 4 points and 10 rebounds in over 32 minutes won't cut it for Bass. Either need more points or more rebounds. His defense wasn't bad, but needs to stay consistent if not improve

I prefer 4/10 to 12/6

For you, Maybe,

But we're talking about Brandon Bass here.
He's a career 5 rebounds per 30 + minutes.
So getting 10 is more than what most expect of him.

He played solid defense too, he was locked in on that side of the game, and I'd rather him get 4 points and 10 rebounds and play excellent defense against arguably the best scorer in the NBA, than get 10 points and 4 rebounds.

I am sure he did it just for you, I swear I saw him cross a "T" on his chest on each board!

Lol. Yep, he totally grabbed all those rebounds for me.

Me and him are personal friends.

You have to have all 5 guys running the offense. Otherwise, defense is way too easy for opponents.

Bass has an excellent midrange jumper. Of course he should take it when open.
