I noticed that too and he was passing more instead of jacking up 8 shots in 10 minutes. If there is a soft player, Budinger fits the bill. If Adelman had Parsons, you better believe Budinger would be benching. I just hope Budinger just keeps his head up because his number will be eventually called. No way should Parsons not start, or not play.
The last game I saw Bud play he was waving the offense to go by him vs NO. I saw one time when he should have been the help defender and literally WATCHED the guy go right past him w/o even trying to stop him. Right after that McHale yanked him off the court and he has not played since. No movement on offense either, and the 3 is not falling like it used to. Bye-Bye Bud.
Dude that's every thread after every post 80,000 times. He should seriously think about moniker suicide and just start all over.
To be fair, I think the vast majority of us are still attempting to figure out McHale's coaching style. All will be revealed, in time.
I still believe Minny is perfect team if we wants to trade Bud. he knows Coach RA's system and he can score, and RA likes player like that. On the other hand, Wes Johnson is very competitive when it comes to defence and dude is long and quick. Morey, please work ur magic.....
I think McHale is really really high on defense, and as a big man player, he knows that Rebound and defense help u win championship. I was really excited while watching us play against T-wolves, all of our players moves quickly on Defense and even Martin starts using his speed on the Defense end. I don't think anyone who does not trying hard to playing defense will have much PT under McHale's coaching and I think that is big reason we have this 7 win streak, it's defense what helped us win games.
That has to be the quickest for a starter to no minutes in History(without a fight involved with coach). Unless there was one we don't know about.
1. Chandler Parsons 2. Courtney Lee 3. Chase BUdinger pick the best two players, or the two players that will give you their best effort on BOTH ends of the court.
I don't believe it is that simple, I think CLee and Parsons are better defenders, but on offense I think you could make a case that Chase is better than both of them there. Personally, I would go with matchups....when I could get away with playing CLee at the SF position Chase might not play, but when other teams have biggers smalls than us....I would sit Lee some and play Chase more. You know, matchups... It is a short compressed season, playing 8 guys only will cause fatigue related injuries and losses to teams we should beat because players are tired. DD
Have you watched Parsons and Lee play with an open unbiased mind? They are doing much better than Chase up to this point, more active, more ball movement, better D, etc. Regardless of the matchup, Parson definitely deserves to be out there and Lee as his backup.
Man, I swear DD is on Budinger's payroll. He is persistent, I'll give him that. But Budinger sucks, plain and simple. Another one of Morey's "low risk" mistakes that seem to be piling up by the year. Budinger is a shooter/scorer who can't shoot. The numbers prove as much. And no, I don't need analytics like, 'Well, with popcorn running low in the second half of games, Budinger is a 40 percent shooter.' There is no need to dig deeper. Budinger is bad. Plain and simple. Thank God McHale realizes it. With his treatment of T-Will, Bud and now Hill, it's like he's forcing Morey to dump the waste.
I just stand up for players that are getting pounded by ignorance. CBud is about yhe same production as Clee and cParsons, whether some like it or not. DD
