New Starting 5

So in a post game report coach said something about a new starting 5.

I assume if a move is to be made, it is for defense reasons.

But who replaces who on this line-up

I dont see Justin Davis or "Big D" breaking into the line-up just yet.

Jordan McCoy is the only player off the bench that is a constant in the category of defense.

So assuming it is Jordan, who does he replace?

Or was this just coach blowing off steam after a loss?


Either way, i dont know how excited i am to be on air with him on Monday night at Boston's….WE NEED TO PACK THAT PLACE JUST TO GET A SMILE ON HIS FACE!

Going small seemed to have been the turning point for us...wondering what kind of changes he will be making?

Re: New Starting 5

Not sure what changes will be coming but as I look at it, Shavar has been getting solid minutes so maybe coach wants to give him a shot at starting again to mix it up a little.  He has been streaky with his shooting, but when he gets in a groove, he is lights out.  Looking at the existing starters and trying to think of possible changes, Sanchez has had some foul trouble so maybe Jarvis wants to shorten his game and not start him so he can have a better chance of finishing some games.

The issue with this scenario becomes the defense.  We don't have a lot of options for defense, so maybe the best defense is a better offense.  Just my thoughts.

Rick;  Should be solid….better than past weeks.  We wont take the radio till prb 6:20pm as it is….hope to see you there

I agree it is all a game of scenarios, the only thing I can see is that coach wants more defense.  Shavar or Jordan coming off the bench to maybe replace Gantt (been shooting cold) or maybe Dirty Sanchez (due to foul trouble).  It wouldnt surprise me to see him maybe replace Ray Taylor with Shavar and test the waters, but Ray does a good job running the offense.

I guess only time will tell

But if it is Justin Davis coming into the starting lineup i may kill myself!

Re: New Starting 5

No word last night about the new starting 5.

Although word on the street is that Gantt is ill and big D twisted his ankle.

I would expect Gantt to start thursday, with no changes in the starting 5.
