    then explain to me, if there are 10 min left, all of our starters are on the bench and we are down by 20....how is that winning?

    Sure. He avaged only a few turnovers a game in Europe but they would quadruple as soon as he gets to the nba, that makes sense. The guy deserves time NOW. Lucas is a joke and doesnt contibute at all.

    This lineup will be more effective than the one JVG is using right now.

    We all saw TMac had trouble defending Harping, Snyder could be a better option.

    And V-Span is the only one on our roster who can defend Deron.

    yeah
    but it's too late now,we should play him in the regular games.
    I don't know why JVG doesn't like his play
    I think that our team is often ok when he is on the court,at least ok but when lucas is on the court the team sucks usually.
    I know JVG believe himself,but he just sucks. :mad:

    What I meant was JVG doesn't play young players unless he has no other choice. His agenda is to win right now, not to develop young players. How can people still not figuring that out by now? Span was not even used in the regular season, how can you expect any coach to play him in the playoff.

    LOL sorry but I stopped reading at "X-factor". The x-factor label belonged to Bonzi Wells, but he decided to quit.

    I've wanted V-Span to play like 5-10 minutes a game, not because I really like Kill Bill, but I don't like seeing Rafer play 45+ minutes.

    All these threads are garbage. After we win Game 5, everyone's optimistic again like nothing happened.

    Do we really have any plan for role players?

    We can use V-Span just because the way he defends. He is tough and contests every shot.

    On the offense end, it's not difficult to have a plan for V-Span. Just use someone to set up a high screen PR.

    Let Deron to spend more energy to chase Billy.

    Who would have thought there would be "It's time for Spanoulis." threads after game 2?

    What are the odds...what are the odds?

    Van Gundy's system and his top 7 players can match up against anyone including the best Celtics, Lakers and Bulls teams of the past. They just have to want to match up. It is mind over matter. Just ask JVG. He will explain it again. Don't you understand the Jeffi Master yet?

    BTW when do Matt and Adam of squeaky voice fame graduate from that Magnet High School program they are in? I think it is great two high school kids like that can get a gig on sports radio and do good. :D

    Don't play Spanoulis! We might lose a game by 13 and get eliminated in the first round!

    So have you seen our team collapsed because of his Tos.
    No!that's because he can bring the positive contribution more than negative.
    Don't believe the statistics.The statistics lie,the score board tell the truth.
    I still think rockets will win this series with this line-up.
    But that doesn't mean JVG is right about span.Good coach doesn't ruin players.

    The idea of play V-Span a little to mix thing up a little is Ludicrous? So play Lucas is not. Rox is shooting contested jumpers for 4 games now. Our field goal percentage is pathetic at the best. We can’t hope one day our jumpers start to fall. Give V-Span a few minutes. Let him try to penetrate after get the ball from T-Mac when double-teamed. He doesn’t need to shoot jumpers. Let him go to the basket. When V-Span try to penetrate and dish, he may turn it over a few times, but it still better than the Tos from Head’s bounce pass. Some player crack under pressure and some player thrive.
