    Posting him up every possession is exactly what Nate did. No creativity at all.

    not enough shots for Babbitt. Can't score if he doesn't have the ball.

    I can't watch the bench unit. For the past few games I seriously have to change the ch. when I see Price/Babbitt/etc. waiting to check in.

    The problem is not enough shots. Can't score if you don't shoot. We have to give a player some shots and let him get into a rhythm.

    We moved up in the score, then took out Hickson. Fell behind, put in Hickson. Our best player. Without him, Lillard and Matthews don't look good.

    The reason Webster went off in that game against Utah was because Roy got hurt and so we started running Webster off the screens and got him some touches. He scored 24 in the quarter. Babbitt is capable of the same kind of shooting but we have to run plays for him. Look at Batum, always capable of scoring big but you have to run plays for him or he doesn't drop 35.

    With this bench I can't believe we're only five down!

    Babbitt is not Webster. Martell actually had some athleticism.

    Price crossed-over when nobody was in front of him.

    This bench is at least entertaining.

    Babbitt is one of the best shooters in the league. Get him shots.

    Babbitt's also an underrated rebounder

    Gotta give Luke Ridnour credit. If you would've asked 2003 me, there's no way I'd think he was starting in 2012-13.
