I think it is time for Randolph to start. I think it is better for him to start than Radmonovic. What happened there? I thought he was going to be a main player this year. Being stuck behind Rad is strange to me.
Absolutely he should, and if any coach other than Nelson/Smart (are they different? I can't tell.) were coaching this team, Randolph would most assuredly be starting over Mikki Moore, and probably over Radmanovic. Actually I don't really care if he starts or not but he should be getting 30+ minutes a game, youthful mistakes be damned. Randolph is the future of this team, Mikki Moore is not. This team has zero chance of making the playoffs this year, there is no good reason not to be playing him big minutes. And he's a better talent than Moore in any case, even if they weren't out of the playoff hunt. Really, how could it possibly get any worse? This team has looked absolutely horrible lately and is bordering on unwatchable. Man, I just dread to see another wasted season where we still don't know what we have going into next year. Maggette should also never be playing PF over Randolph.
Randolph should definitely be starting. Sure, he's going to make mistakes because he's the youngest player on the team, but we should be helping him develop his game right now. He should be starting over Radmanovic or even Mikki Moore at center. I'd put him over Maggette, too, because anytime you get Maggette as your leading scorer, then your team is not doing as well as it should.
