Mistakes that Ty has made:
Point: Burks not getting playing time (biggest one IMO), ahead of Earl Watso
Counterpoint: Has had some boneheaded stints. He is learning loads this season. If he ever gets out of this lack-of-plying-time rut, he will be a MUCH better shooter, defender, and team-player than he would otherwise if he had gotten playing time from the start, or if he had been drafted to another team. Also, not all high picked guards get time (see Jeremy Lamb)
Point: Millsap and Al playing together
Counterpoint: Who knows. PERHAPS he originally planned Kanter and Favors developing chemistry together so they'd be in-sync in a few years when they both start? Also, Millsap has been the first player checking out for a while now. Typically, Millsap will check out, then Al will check out with 30 seconds or so left in the quarter. I honestly don't see this as nearly as big of a problem as the first point.
Point: Foye getting time/starts ahead of Hayward, Burks
Counterpoint: Foye has been lights out this season, and has bailed out shooting droughts many-a-time. Also, when Al is on the court, there is not a guard that compliments him better. Best shooter on this team. I have no qualms with him getting this much burn with Mo Williams out. Burks still needs minutes though (see Watson point above). Also, Hayward has been much better off the bench than in starts. Let him continue his improvement.
Point: Not getting after the vets for defense
Counterpoint: What happens to our offense when Sap and Al check out? Have people still not realized that Kanter and Favors don't yet have half court consistency?? They're great on the break, sure, but our team would look JUST like we did in the 4th quarter against the heat earlier this month if we benched Al and Sap every time they blew a defensive assignment. Sorry guys, its the way it is. For now, I am comrtable with feeding Favors and Kanter iso-situations in the low block to get their experience up-- as we clearly don't have a point guard capable of making them get feeds off of things like screens, picks, and so on.
What other complaints do y'all have??
Looks like Im'a be George'n u n00bz all night long. A shame I have to log off soon.
