    Who would you start? I would start Murray. I like the idea of Peterson coming off the bench...

    I like the idea of Mo coming off the bench too, but unless Murray plays really well in camp and preseason Mo will have the starting job. I really hope these guys light it up this year because there are not that many scorers on the squad.

    i would like mopete starting. mopete plays better with vince when he doesnt need to be the go to guy.

    on the other hand, murray is better off the bench where he will get more shots. if he starts with vince then there may be hogging problems.

    also, mo pete plays good defense while murray does not. vince likes to do nothing on defense so with mo beside him, mo could guard the better swingman.

    michael curry is good at defense too so he will be good off the bench with murray where murray wont have to guard the best offensive swingman on the floor.

    I would start Lamond, mo pete sucks at getting to the line, and has a terrible shot selection while shooting a terrible percentage. Lamond can get to the line any time he wants unlike Mo Pete, who usually settles for outside jumpers. Lamond can shoot and get to the line, thats one more thing better than Mo so thats why I'd take Lamond.

    Murray should start, Peterson could be a great spark off the bench.

    It's a win win situation here. I think the Murray should start so Mo can maybe win the 6th man next yr (if he can top Bobby Jackson! GO KINGS!)

    I think it is a win win situation... Peterson is the better defender and he will have to defend the starters on the other teams. I like Peterson for the defence but Murray for his offence.

    Murray cant play D. He wont start. O neil is high on defense. Mo Pete is not good off the bench he played two games off the bench last season and was bad. Murray would be instant offense off the bench. Who would be great to carry the offensive load when Carter is nt playing. And Murray did nt play a game all last year.
