    I wouldn't put CJ in the starting lineup at all. Crabbe is longer and a better defender. We need CJ's scoring punch from the bench.

    Aren't we undefeated or something with Crabbe as a starter?

    Well...maybe he said that leaving the court. :)

    On that note...Crabbe might be ready. I loved the poise and quiet confidence he played with last night. He's a decent defender and if he gets hot. Look out:

    Mother F'er! I had complete amputation in the office pool.

    I hate when I pick wrong.

    Afflalo update: still doesn't rebound or pass AT ALL. Still not very good at defense. Still making me miss Wes like crazy.

    I think Afflalo is getting wrongfully judged from a small sample of play here. It takes time to know your teammates and coaches system. I think he'll be fine for the playoffs.

    I think he always was pretty one-dimensional. My complaint is not so much about him fitting in (although it's to be hoped that our team defense gets a BIT better) but noticing what he always wasn't doing. Once again, I'm surprised at the silence from those people who like PER, because his must be pretty shitty.

    He was on the allstar ballot in Orlando before he went to Denver. Give him time to acclimate. Wes played with our starters for years. He's a good two guard
