    Adrian needs a little more playing time. Have Jim Jackson come off the bench, along with Mo Taylor, and they can be our go-to guys when our starters are off the court.

    (That's how I have my NBA2k2 team workin for me ;) ) (for Dreamcast)

    wouldn't expect anything less from a guy who bought a car without even seeing it.

    Heck lets bench Yao, Francis and Mobley so Padgett, Pike and Boki can get some more playing time.

    FREE BOKI!

    I was going to say something also but the rest of you did a fine job of stomping on this ridiculous suggestion.

    I think it's a wonderful idea.

    It seems to me the point of the suggestion was to equalize our production through 48 minutes, especially considering that Mo Taylor is the only reliable offense off the bench. I don't think that is ridiculous at all. But, I still don't want to do it. I think he plays well with Yao and he keeps his defensive man honest with his 3-point shooting and his ability to cut to the basket, thus relieving some double-team pressure from the small forward position. Adrian Griffin can't really provide that.

    This isn't the NHL; you don't balance your lines. In the NBA, your best players are the starters, and play the most minutes, you rotate subs in an out as necessary on an individual basis but that's it. This is how we do it.

    This is how we do it.

    This is how we do it.
    It's Friday night, and I feel all right
    The party is here on the West side
    So I reach for my 40 and I turn it up
    Designated driver take the keys to my truck
    Hit the shore 'cause I'm faded
    Honeys in the street say, "Monty, yo we made it!"
    It feels so good in my hood tonight
    The summertime skirts and the guys in Kani
    All the gang bangers forgot about the drive - by
    You gotta get your groove on, before you go get paid
    So tip up your cup and throw your hands up
    And let me hear the party say

    1 - I'm kinda buzzed and it's all because
    (This is how we do it)
    South Central does it like nobody does
    (This is how we do it)
    To all my neighbors you got much flavor
    (This is how we do it)
    Let's flip the track, bring the old school back
    (This is how we do it)

    Damn, a Montel Jordan reference - I never thought I would see that here! I remember listening to that song when I was down in grad school - seemed like "Return of the Mack" by Mark Morrison was out at the same time.

    Always wondered what happened to Montel and Mark...
