    Stotts plays his bench players and rookies more than most coaches would....he played Meyers, Freeland, CJ and Crabbe, Claver all during their rookie seasons...everyone on the bench has seen the court 12 games in....that's actually pretty uncommon...

    Right? And if we had lost to the Nuggets we were bound for the lottery. I think 90% of this joint live on the extremes. Definitely not me.

    I think Stotts trying to establish his 2nd unit right now. He using Swanigan like he did Crabbe couple years ago when our small foward got hurt. So he doesn't mess with 2nd unit as unit he just replace someone that not rotation has the starter. So I believe Stotts still figures Aminu has his starter when he gets back.

    I do not. I think Biggie will continue to start as long as we're playing well.

    The joke sailed over your head. But the premise was that while you constantly rail on posters for being extreme in their commentary on the team and its players, you are simultaneously extreme in your comments about the forum and its posters.

    You unwittingly emulate the very behavior you purport to despise.

    Ah it was a joke, gotcha. But you think I'm wrong that the majority on here are as bi-polar as they get? From winning the championship to finishing dead last in 24 hours. I don't think I'm too off base with that

    Yes, I think you're wrong about that. You take a few people who behave in a certain way and extrapolate it across the majority. It's a lazy opinion, but I'm used to it at this point.

    You're going to need to define extrapolate for him...

    To be fair, when you say things like that, that is extreme. So, in this case he's not wrong. lol.

    Precisely. I was referring to his meta-posting.

    I liked the ferocity of Davis and Biggie together, but they were getting in each other's way. They both kind of do the same thing aside from the random Biggie jump shot. It makes sense to have only one of those guys in at a time. They are both going to get a ton of offensive rebounds and you might as well spread that out throughout the game by having one of those junk yard types in at a time. That is going to wear a lot of teams out and frustrate a lot of coaches.

    Can't help but wonder if maybe they are showcasing him.
