    YES, THANK GOD :grin: just kidding but I am happy he's back. Lin played well but Beverly is fun to watch bcd he makes the other team's pgs very angry.

    ^Yes

    Preseason action isn't enough information.

    There is no 6th man here, did you hear it from coach? We have starters and bench players.

    There's a defense gap.

    Every team has a 6th man, either official or de facto

    Yeah because when he's not sitting out the second game of a back to back, a 40 year old Nash with a 0.28 FG% and no rollman is dangerous

    Agree... Don't have issue with decision but people are disingenuous to claim that this will be good for Jeremy's career.

    Him and Asik will be traded before their contracts are up.

    agree. not surprised that bev is starting and stated after the first game that when bev is ready to come back, the starting job will still be his.

    i'm actually glad mchale is doing this - shows he's willing to stick to his convictions and at least give it more games to see how works out. it was his decision and his job to lose, so he should have all the right to try it for as long as he wants.

    I see no sense to change it but it is the coach's decision.

    I think so too. You don't pay $8m to a bench guy. Lin won't be here after this season. But he is playing better so he can be a good starter somewhere else. Little joy in being a 4th man off the bench anyways.

    TT've been struggled, hope Bev can help a bit. I still don't think this starting line up would work.

    They deserve better. They were a huge part of bringing this team back to relevance, and now everyone's out for their blood.

    Putting our third most important player on the bench. I love it!
