Because two weeks is "lately". Your parameters you showed Smarts stats from 3 months ago! Yeah, 2 weeks is lately! It just makes you look bad,as usual!! LOL - two TOTALLY different posts. I wonder about your intelligence sometimes. The Smart post - YOU said, "when he takes 15 shots we lose" - nothing about "lately". So, I listed all the games he's taken 15+ shots. And, you were wrong. The Hauser post - YOU said "he's been playing really well lately." - I showed you stats from the last 5 games (which is lately), and, AGAIN, you were wrong. Why can't you just admit you misspoke, or you got it wrong, instead of trying to turn it around on me like a 5 year old? Have a nice day!

you showed Smarts stats from 3 months ago! Yeah, 2 weeks is lately! It just makes you look bad,as usual!! 9 games is lately!! Why don't we say the whole month of February? In the month of Feb, he is averaging 20 mins per game, and 9 PPG. He's been in double figures 5 times in 11 games, and single digits 6, including 2 zeroes. Those 5 double figure games all came in a row, the last one being 2/14 - TWO weeks ago. Since Valentine's Day he has sucked. Want to keep moving the goal posts here? You can't cherry pick his stats. He's inconsistent, and I don't think he'll get a ton of playoff minutes. Which is why we got Gallo, and why we need Barton right now. I do agree, however, that he was not the reason they lost last night. That would fall on Tatum, White, Grant, and anyone else who contributed to shooting 9-42 from 3.

Speaking of load management! Paul Pierce was stabbed 11 times in 2000, yet somehow managed to play in all 82 games!!

Pud does not need to be a moderator! He has a bias against certain posters, but thinks it's amusing when other posters do the same thing! Ky:
You had a chance two days ago initiated by me in PM to get issues like this out in the open privately and you claimed that there weren't any issues to talk about.
Now you suggest that there are in fact issues.
Stop the whining for God sake.
If you have issues with me as a mod, you go the PM route as I asked.
And if you and I cannot work them out, you continue to go up the chain of command... to admin.

Barton is signing with the Raptors, and now I'm pissed because we are stuck with Hauser Geesh. Let's go Hauser. I like the guy, as I like all the players on our team. But he is too inconsistent. I really hope he gets hot again around playoff time, but I fear the league has figured him out. He's a 3-and-okay-D guy. I can't see him covering Middleton for long stretches of time. It's the same pattern as last year. There is no one to give Brown and Tatum some rest. They need it NOW because Mazz will play them both 48 in the playoffs. Why? Because we have Brogs, White, Grant and Moose. We need one more player. I hope it's Hauser, I really do, but right now my eyes are telling me something different.

We are literally repeating what we did last year. What can we expect come playoff time from Hauser and PP? They will be huge liabilities on defense. Also, don't understand why Muscala hasn't been seeing much time lately either.
Seems like a lot of pressure to put on Brogdon as the only addition that will definitely be in the rotation. I was really hoping to get a better offensive option at the wing than Hauser.
Oh well, this is who we are. Maybe Snell or Valentine take that last spot.

Nuances of the English language have always amused me. I also said I hope he gets hot again before the playoffs. I like him because he's on the team, and plays hard. I'd rather have Barton, but that is moot now. We are "stuck" with Hauser, unless we bring up Snell. Hauser is remarkably inconsistent, but I wish he wasn't. Seems okay to me!

But it's now on the coach to give them some well earned rest.

I'm putting this loss on JB, personal day my ass!! Only kidding folks! 2 for 19 shooting 3's the first half is hard to overcome! Brogdon and Horford are the only guys who shot well the whole game! Rwill was outplayed by Mitchell, and has had more mediocre games than good games this season! Could be time to start thinking about bringing him off the bench! Tatum needs to cut down his 3 point attempts and take it to the rim more! Last but not least when smart takes 15 shots, we will lose!! DPOYticus had a considerably better offensive game than superstar Mr. Ruffles.
When DPOYticus has to fill the offensive void cause by superstar Mr. Ruffles stinking it up..... the Cs deserve to lose.

I misread this initially. Thought you said Smart HAS a better offensive game than Tatum. Had vs has changes it completely. My apologies.

Is it possible giannis isn't really their best player? Those questions go out generally to anyone. Not specifically to cabby

Not specifically to cabby I don't think it would affect us that much plus the benefits of giving bench the exposure they need outweighs how far we would fall.

Not specifically to cabby No lower than 2. I don't think MIL can keep it up. I'm not saying rest now, I'm saying when we have 1 or 2 locked up. Rest Tatum and Brown against the DET's of the world......if that makes sense.

Cross your fingers if we have to bring up someone from ME he can be as good or better than Barton may have been ... Snell?

These guys like Barton, Hauser, PP, Snell....It doesnt bother me much.
DWhite wipes the floor with all of them. And when we're healthy , he doesnt get enough minutes. Ditto for brogs. These guys can and will play some wing. The guys we're talking about are not in the rotation when healthy.
Smart/Brogdon/White Brown/White/Brogdon Tatum/Brogdon/White Al/Grant/Moose Rwill/Al/Grant/Moose
You can rest Brown and Tatum by leaning on White.

Smart, Brown, tatum, White, Brogdon - are all 30 mins/night guys. Or should be. So thats 150 minutes.
Outside of PF and C, the other 3 positions - theres 48*3. So about 150 mins to go around.
If one of the 5 isnt available, then the other 4 go from 30 mins (avg) to 37.5. You can insert some Hauser to ease the load. Or PP or Snell or whomever. But we are talking about just taking up 10 mins here and there.

Good point ... I read that C's want a #1 seed and maybe that is their means to get rest.
Last season because of seeding we had the toughest rounds to the finals and no doubt that had more to do with fatigue than the regular season so that could be why Mazz is leaning on the starters in these games.
Just saw this post by Cole right before I posted mine: As long as we win. It may make more sense to target the easy wins and rest the hard games actually. Take the birds in hand
Like minds ...

Well Brown just got some rest by missing the last game. ANd also a few with the face injury. He should be rested up. Smart missed a good amount of time recently, he should be rested up. Do we only mean Tatum? Maybe give him a game off , but its one game.
