What's to explain. Childress started and we got off to a great start. I'm not saying it was because of him but clearly, him starting isn't the reason we lost either.

Steve

What I mean by that is I would have preferred to see Dudley in the starting lineup. What has Childress done to deserve starting?

Dudley is the only one that is reliable off the bench. Who else is going to bring some sparks off the bench, and he couldn't have contributed more than Childress did in the 1st quarter before the bench were brought in and everything went south

Having a spark off the bench doesn't help when your starting lineup puts you into the hole every single night.

Actually, we weren't in the hole during the first quarter vs. the Nuggets.

And as much as I've been against our offense only mentality, I'd like to see Warrick get more steady playing time at, yes, PF.

He is our best sparkplug on offense and we need that.

True but several of the game since the trade we have been.

Why not put Gortat Warrick Hill Carter Nash in the starting lineup? What exactly are we missing with Rolo ? Gortat does everything better than Rolo except jumpers and free throws. Giving Nash two options to run the pick and roll is also a plus. Seeing Frye pick and roll with Nash makes me want to smash my TV into a gazillion pieces. That play goes nowhere and nowadays Nash doesn't even pass to Frye even when he's open lol.

Maybe that will be the line up for the next ten games after these ten games, or ten games after that? How long is the season? :D

Not true. Lopez does a much better impression of Sideshow Bob.
