I'd like to see Traveon Graham or Chris Johnson in the second half to see if they can shoot.
Start em both
I know this has been discussed in length but what I've been seeing, I think that Hood should be the starter. I'm one of the biggest Burks fan but he just isn't as good of an off-ball player as Hood. For example, there were many instances in the 1st quarter where Hayward (or someone) would create an open 3 look for Burks that he would either miss or pass up to drive into a crowded lane with Favors and Gobert. Hood is (probably?) a more reliable spot-up 3 point threat. Burks has tremendous playmaking and scoring ability that would be great with the second unit with a little more spacing.
I'm fine with it. As long as they are in striking position for the playoffs in the last week.
If they win 45+ games and just miss the playoffs then I can live with that.
The west is tough
I don't really want to live with Kanter shooting 20-footers either. Plus, he's a problem on defense. Kanter won't help. What we need is a PG who can shoot, and for Favors to play better.
I'd be all for this if it didn't make our 2nd unit look absolutely terrible. Burks or Hood need to be a 6th man..
I'm not watching the game but if Burks was indeed doing this he should be demoted immediately. Passing up 3s, putting your foot on the line in your 5th year is completely unacceptable.
I agree with you, Mario Chalmers?
Nice open look by Trey
encouraging....relatively speaking.
Followed it up with a really nice pass to favorsThat was sick! Burks the one showing the most passion.
Mario Chalmers can shoot?
