    Stats show that Elleby has done well in limited minutes, but he did not play in Denver Game 5 in contrast to the 50 min and signs of exhaustion that CJ and Norm showed in the OT. End the rigid Blazer rotation scheme.

    Elleby plays with energy, speed, and determination. If CJ or Norm are not having a great start in the next 2 (and following) playoff games, let's take advantage of the energy, shooting, and fresh legs of CJ Elleby.

    If we see Elleby at this point it's over.

    No. Absolutely No. I like Elleby but he is not ready. He is shooting 37% overall and 20% from three and this is against scrubs.

    Like a Denver is playing their scrubs and winning and maybe if we played our scrubs we would win kind of thing?

    The funny thing to me is that I think Little would actually be better than Simons or Melo.
