I'd actually call up a D-league PG for the next few games, until Delonte gets right or we pick up a waiver PG.  Bradley at PG would be a disaster, and Rondo can't go all 48.

and to be honest..we can get away with PP running a little point in the regular season but they have to get insurance behind rondo. don't care who it is but they need a guy that can play right now and then be ready if needed in the playoffs...i love west...but this is getting tiresome...guys can't play 5 games without getting hurt

To be completely honest Id rather have Bibby running the offense of the second unit than I would West. Bibby is a true point guard, West is better coming off screens as the off guard. West and his injury prone ness is scaring me this year. not a huge fan t all.

If Miami gets Bibby, they may release Arroyo.  I think he would be adequate.

play pierce at the point when rondo sits...bring in green at the SF, wafer at the SG.....rondo comes back..sit PP...this is going to increase Green's minutes the most over the next few games..


so we could see at lest 2 guys brought in this week correct? murphy and a TBA...i am hoping by friday we have a complete roster

This is why we needed Nate.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

doc rivers said D. West's injury occurred during skeleton drills.

Does anyone know if they can cut a 10-day contract guy at any time?  Because if they can, I would get Antonio Daniels to Utah ASAP.

Yeah, funny how JO gets ripped for having a bad attitude or alleged poor work ethic while Delonte is as injury prone as him and yet gets a free pass.

It sucks, hopefully it's not severe and it allows Bradley to get some confidence but I doubt it.

i personally just don't trust the health of west or JO going from here forward...that is why you need to bring murphy and another point in..if JO and west return and are good to go then great..but i would rather have too many on the bench that being n a spot like they are now

I watched Javaris Crittendon play PG against the Claws around a month ago.  I think he could handle 10 minutes a game to back up Rondo, and he's got NBA experience.
