    Maybe Varejao? He seems to bring a lot of energy even though he doesn't score much. And Manu has been coming off the bench lately I think I heard and he has done well.

    Toronto-Anthony Parker. What an amazing all around player. He does everything. He has one of the highest basketball IQ's in the league, he can shoot the ball really well, pass, play defense, he knows the fundamentals....He is just a perfect NBA role player. And he is a class act too. Without him, I really don't think we'd be leading the Atlantic right now.Houston-Shane Battier^see aboveNYK-David Lee. All around hustle guy, and a great rebounder. He has great athleticism and heart too.

    Is Earl Boykins starting with the Bucks? I remember he was a huge spark off the bench for the Nuggets. Also, Corey Maggette puts up big numbers for the Clippers off the bench as well as Leondro Barbosa. Can't forget about Turiaf's passion and energy for the Lakers. BTW Ben Gordon is a starter now.

    Philadelphia 76ers - Kyle Korver... instant offense and energy off the bench. Even when his shot isn't falling (which is rare), he draws charges, and probably is our best team defender.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Pinoy Balla @ Mar 5 2007, 08:23 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>how could you forget.SAS- Manu Ginobili</div>Although its ridiculous that a player like him would come off the bench, he has really excelled in that role on the team. He is getting less minutes per game, and putting up more points. Ever since he went to the bench, the Spurs just seem to be doing better as a team.I also like David Lee as a spark plug off the bench, and when I have seen Renaldo Balkman play, he has always brought alot of energy as well.

    41nowitski u say Stackhouse isn't that great off the bench then you go ahead and mention Darrell Armstrong as if he's better or something. In my opinion, Stackhouse has been playing hte best basketball of his career in Dallas. Everywhere else he was a ballhog and a selfish player, he's thrived in Dallas being the 6th man coming off the bench.

    They don't have to be off the bench, either that or just role players .

He used to be one of the league's best scorers. I mentioned the because he provides all of that spark that gets the teams that he plays for going. IMO, every team needs a Darrell Armstrong.

    James Posey- Very Smart, high energy guy, and always willing to lay it out on the court. He's also a great three point shooter on top of that.

He used to be a good point guard for Orlando and even the first year in New Orleans. That is far over though.
