It's demoralizing seeing KG jump and not haul in boards, at least JJJ would use his athleticism to get us some of those boards.

He needs to start boxing people out. He can't out jump them anymore.

Put Bass back on the bench, and start JJ.

He can score, yes, but he'd get eaten alive on the defensive end.

I'm officially on this bandwagon now.

His dunk in the final seconds convinced me. The man can jump. I can see the alley-oops between him and Rondo now. He can get boards. And he's young so he'll be able to run.

We really have nothing to lose right now.

If you think it demoralizes us, what effect do you think it has on Garnett's teammates?

He is to small to sub at center and Bass is earning his minutes at PF as KG's sub. Would like to see him on the floor with KG playing at center.

I just dont think JJJs ready yet.  It's still too early IMO to say we have nothing to lose by playing him.  We've lost a couple close games, and had runs come up short in others.  If PP and/or KG get back to where they were last year, we can still make some noise.

The only thing about not seeing JJJ play that really hurts, is having to watch Brooks keep lighting it up for NJ, and feel like it shouldve been for us =/

He's got the same timing as Bill Russell.

This exact line  of thinking is why all our young players waste away on the bench and we work our older players who can't jump or run or do much of ANYTHING at this point into oblivion.

Yep. Keep playing KG. Keep getting the same result.

Or play Johnson, get worse result.

That may be true. But we'll never know unless we try it out.

He doesn't even have to start but at least give the kid some REAL minutes outside of garbage time for crying out loud.
