    Sorry for the hostility. I would say what you wrote about TJones being the forgotten man and the whole paragraph about him makes it seem very much like you did not know about his long-standing injury. Coupled with what you said earlier in the thread about "Ok, just curious why he was dressed out" and other people corroborating your point on Terrence, I continue to see this as another thread where people have unreasonable gripes toward the substitution pattern of the coaches without having all of the information.

    As far as utilizing our PFs is concerned: We had an entire offensive philosophy and scheme set up to do just that - utilize the PFs we had on the team. I don't think it's possible or reasonable to expect us to be able to change our offense to a traditional 2 post player set especially because we would be playing around the post games of Omer Asik and Thomas Robinson. If this group was 4-5 years older, I'd say maybe. But with the young guys on our team now, why upset what James, Jeremy and Chandler have going on and have figured out this year just so that we can use Dmo in the post more? Is Dmo's post game really that good?

    Apology accepted. I think if we give DMo consistent time in the post we'll all be very happy with the outcome. You are probably right about it being too late in the season for major adjustments. However, I still look at this year as a learning and growth season. What we do in the next 20 games and the play-offs (hopefully) will help us build on next season.
