    VSpan
    Snyder
    Novak
    Hayes
    Jake T.

    Perhaps this is a sign of players being tired of JVG's antics and quitting on him, an involuntary mutiny of some sort.

    I thought of that, but I think it is more the season long doldrums setting in and they are happy with their record.

    The law of averages is catching up with them. and we are keeping our other guns holstered by benching guys like Snyder and Vspan. After getting slightly increased playing time , Snyder actually made a semi-complaint publicly about his lack of playing time. Guess that must have irked JVG that is why he is seeing less playing time lately. There seems to be an unwritten rule that you never complain about playing time publicly or you get benched.

    dont forget about the Moochie/Cato/Kenny Thomas days when Stevie, Cuttino, and Mooch would take turns dribbling out the shot clock and jack one up at he last second and we would struggle scoring 80

    I felt bad for Rudy T those days. Its like that team wouldnt even listen to him anymore.

    yea, or maybe a combination of the 2
    also, the 8-man rotation is wearing out, and the bench has no experience because JVG wont play them

    its sucks because JVG has a great basketball mind, and with some substitutions he will win championships, but why is he so darn stubborn about playing certain people and rotations and such, jeez. He negates his positives with his negatives

    and now is the time when his stubborness is going to bite him in the ass, becasue his older players emptied their tnaks and the rookies were not prepared to take over in this critical time of the schedule and it is worse for their career to insert them now in the last 5 minutes when the game is already lost, becasue they try to overdo things to make a difference and it makes the situation worse so it is basically a lose/lose situation.
