What do you think? He seems to be really floundering off the bench with some high stats and great percentages, really adds a spark to the offense when he comes in..</p> <table width="100%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center" class="dwsmodule"> <tbody> <tr> <td class="bilabel" colspan="6">SIXTH MAN alert?</td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#cccccc"> <td align="center" class="dwsmodule" colspan="6">Jason Terry is making an early bid for sixth man of the year consideration.

in the grand scheme of things, 4 games isn't anything.</p> </p> You think he stays as the 6th man most of the year?</p>
Way too early to tell. With that being said, if he keeps his production at this level, and they keep him as coming off the bench for the whole season, it'd be hard to not give it to him.</p>
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (CelticKing)</div><div class='quotemain'></p> He won't stay as a 6th man if he keeps playing that way. It would be dumb to keep him there.</p> </div></p> </p> I think it would be nice to have someone like that who can come in off the bench and keep things going once the starters get a little tired. he's still going to get lots of minutes and probably be on the floor when the game is on the line either way.</p>
Thats true Todd, that its good having a guy like that coming off from the bench but they can't risk being down in the first few minutes later in the season when other teams start playing well, it's not a good idea IMO.</p>
He is averaging starters minutes, so it really just about not playing the first 4-7 minutes of the game. Might as well keep him there and let him win an award for it.</p>
