    We really need to keep Banton.

    I can't fathom why Murray gets minutes over him.

    Id rather have him starting than Ant or Grant too.

    I hope Billups is paying attention. No Ayton, No Simons, and No Grant. His Golden Boys.

    Oh well. Here comes Ayton.

    I figure Billups doesn’t like something about Banton’s game and/or attitude

    Give the ball to Scoot and let him be aggressive please. What is this offense?

    He's outplaying Simons. Maybe that's why. Billups HAS to put Simons in the game.

    I just don’t like watching Simons play basketball.

    simons' effort on defense is shockingly bad even for him.

    if shaedon did what simons has done this game, he'd be benched for a week

    if his shot is off, he brings nothing. and the turnstile on defense is killing us.

    If Dame is Dame Dollar, then Simons is Dollar Store Dame.

    Banton earned more playing time than Simons, but , of course Simons leads the team with 18 minutes.

    Simons: 1 assist , 2 turnovers (should be more from his crappy passes) , 3-8 shooting for 7 points.

    Banton: 2 assists, 0 turnovers, 1 block, 3 - 7 for 8 points.
