    Personally(baring any other pending trades) I think McHale will probably go with Delfino for another game or two and try to go through a few practices first before he inserts either D-Mo/T-Rob/ or Jones into the starting lineup.

    You would think D-Mo has the edge based on everything you hear about his work ethic and the time he got tonight vs. OKC, but I think 1 or 2 practices alone with these young bigs should help with re-working rotation minutes, and get their sets right(comfort levels with who goes where, defensive rotations, etc).

    So if Delfino starts again next game, please try to NOT freak out and create a million new threads about how McHale sucks everyone....

    A quality veteran wing knock down shooter coming off the bench. Actually he's going to be a solid pickup for the remainder of the season here in the home stretch.

    I actually think TJones should get more minutes than D-Mo. I love D-Mo's potential, but he's just too soft at this point.

    Parsons shouldn't be starting PF. I don't think he can guard the bigger 4s in the league.

    And 3 point range has nothing to do with being a good 4 lol.

    Trying to target the large Dominican market since the Haitians weren't large enough with Dalembert.

    Robinson should start. Every freaking game.
    DMo can back him up. Royce White might take that backup spot eventually or push Parsons at the 3.

    That lineup did pretty well tonight though... I think it depends on matchups. We'll see.

    T-Rob

    Thomas Robinson should get the chance to start. Playing on a better team I believe will boost his confidence and overall game.

    I truely love that answer....but D-Mo should get a shot..The guys is quick for a big man..He needs to utilize his dribbling ability and learn to kick the ball out like the rest of our crew..He shoots the ball deep and can be a treat..Im sure it will take some time before he realizes that.I hope he doesnt take too long to catch on..He does that and we have a starting PF...



    Awesome win tonight!!! WOOT!!
