    I suspect Scola will start on him as Hill isn't a good option either. If PatPat plays him well, he could get a lot minutes this game. I don't think Adelman will try PatPat first.

    Hill can do 2 quick fouls and Adelman bring in Jeffries.

    Forgot about him. JJ will get the time if no one else can stop LA.

    Hill is probably the one assigened to him early with PPat coming on after foul trouble.

    If you want to shut him down JJ is the guy that should be playing, but he whined his way out of the rotation when he said he was almost bought out.

    You really think that's why he's not playing?

    I think that has something to do with it, yes.....and that the team will buy him out or trade him at the deadline....barring injury, I doubt he plays much at all..

    No need to showcase him either, teams around the league know what he can and can't do....

    JJ is unhappy,but he should try to convince RA that he wants to play.

    Have you ever seen him guard Dirk? He does as well as any other defender we would have IMO

    I can't wait to see Marcus Camby tip the offensive rebounds back outside for more positions....
