Temple is out to make room for the players in the trade and lowry could be out for up to a month. Who is gonna back up AB? Cbud?
Just noticed this as well. How are Martin's handles because nobody else on the roster is competent ball handler in the open court.
I hope they bring Temple back up. He played pretty well the last 2 games, especially when AB couldn't handle the bigger guards.
I think Martin & possibly Taylor will take on some ball handling duties, to give Brooks a breather every once in a while.... --RB
I liked Temple and I hope the best for him, but it's time to get a lot of playing time for our new roster. I agree that martin should be capable of running the point and maybe someone else can step up as well. Especially since Kevin and Brooks will both be starting.
I would guess this means Martin is definitely playing tomorrow night. AB is going to log some heavy minutes until Kyle gets back.
This. ^ It still befuddles me how guys can be studs in the d league then stink it up so badly in the pros. It has to relate to lack of playing time.
I think putting the ball in Martin's hands that much defeats the purpose of why we brought him here. He's here because he's fantastic at moving without the ball, and he's very shifty when it comes to getting open. I think we're gonna see Jermaine Taylor backing up AB. The only thing is, AB's gotta be smarter than he's been over the past few weeks when it comes to turnovers and fouls. Lowry really has proven just how valuable he is in his absence.
