    Parsons over Bud?
    That is the question.

    Lee over Parsons?

    T-Will?

    Who should be our starting 3?

    That seems to be our weakest position at the moment, and Parsons looks like he can play.

    Do we put in Lee? T-Will? Morris? DD?

    Bud has had a slow start, IMO he would do better off the bench.

    Yes but it's not the main target.
    Get the players to play D consistently......stop the penetration.........and increase shooting drills.............the shooting was horrible in Orlando and Memphis

    Parsons is looking good....it may benefit the starters to have his hustle and rebounding out there...that seems to be consistent...but he's not likely to win the spot so quickly.

    I wouldnt call it a knee jerk considering it should have never happened in the first place. There have been no sign of major improvement in defense by Martin or Bud so they shouldnt start together.
    I went with Lee for this reason

    Lee, until someone steps up and moves him to the 2 by playing better ball.

    Look elsewhere.

    Nic Batum is unhappy this season being demoted to the Blazers bench.

    He passes the wing checklist of
    *Can dunk
    *Can block shots
    *Can hit the threeball

    Bud's 900k contract makes him a keeper if the Rockets play the two All Star free agents game next year in free agency.

    I love Parsons because he's crashing the boards like a mad man.

    Small foward isn't the problem to begin with, unless somebody else breaks out Chase Budinger occupies that role. If you ask me, I'd plug whoever proves to be the best defender in there.

    Lee is the best candidate, but then who would be the backup SG?

    But not playing well at all (Twill) means not only something, but that he'll start??

    :confused:


    And parsons didnt just play garbage minutes today or last night.

    Please stop the insanity. Parsons gets credit for being the only guy going all out in a blow out. Putting up numbers in garbage time does not mean you should be the starter.
