    There's a possibility he gets waived in the next couple weeks for another player.

    No. This is incredibly short-sighted. Morey likes JH, and I heard his name awhile before the deadline.

    He's not going to be waived over a few poor games.

    :rolleyes:

    He is the suck.

    The thing about Hammydog is that if he just doesn't understand his place on offense . I like him ok in other facets of the game.


    That being said..... Garcia has been terrible this year but does probably need to go into the rotation heading into the offseason.

    He is just not that good. He had a good first game and typically GARM, conclusions were made.

    When he first came to the team he was playing within the offense, passing the ball and shooting when open. Lately he's been forcing it and trying to do too much one-on-one. He's also in a shooting slump which doesn't help either.

    He hasn't been playing well lately, but he doesn't know the team's system well so I can't blame him.

    Garcia has also been playing far better as of late, but had Garcia continued to struggle Hamilton would probably have gotten more minutes.

    he's playing like a scrub, and scrubs don't get playing time until they stop playing like a scrub

    Garcia went from scrub to non-scrub so now hes getting pt again

    Just working in Garcia for the playoffs, plus Hamilton is kind of slumping. dont think he is in the doghouse though. He will be there in the playoffs.

    Jordan is struggling with his shot.

    Garcia appears to be rejuvenated. If he can shoot his career %s, he'll be okay.

    No, he struggled...Mchale gave Garcia and go and he played well so stays in the rotation. Mchale is going to go with the hot guy.

    Hamilton doesn't really bring anything that we already have in Casspi. At least Casspi is a decent rebounder for his size.

    Hope he gets some run in the postseason. I saw flashes of really, really good transition defense.

    I don't think Jordan Hamilton had the guidance he needed at Denver. He's a project and it takes time to develop. McHale seems to be a very demanding coach that expects a lot from his players. He definitely has his interpretation of how basketball should be played and he expects his guys to understand it and play by it. I sometimes wonder if Kevin McHale knows how to speak english he speaks basketball with his cryptic phrases that out of context sounds weird. We need to be honest Parsons, Garcia, and Casspi have all played well the last few games.
