I would say just bring him off the bench but bud is the worst player on the tam so I say trade em both for someone like, oh idk....... ANYBODY!
Amazingly, if we take Shane out of the starting lineup we would end up being worse than what we are right now. Houston Rockers 2010 for you..
Right now he is not better than chuck Hayes, he should be a situational player. The problem is that the only player playing worse than him happens to be the only other SF on the team.
I've been a Battier fan, but i cringe every time he gets the ball. I don't know why but he's become an incapable shooter, and age has hit him hard on defense, he does have an expiring contract, which could be valuable.
I won't pile on Shane with the team down, but, as many of you know, I have never been a big fan. His lack of offensive punch is just so obvious now when the team is playing so poorly. I don't see anything special defensively and that makes the situation worse. The problem is that C-Bud, the heir apparent is in a horrible slump. The return of Yao and AB just keeps getting pushed further back. Today it was two weeks, now people are talking about three weeks. By then no one will be watching. More and more this season is looking DOA.
