I don't care what the statline shows the past 2 games - Afflalo looks horrible out there to me.
He gets set up repeatedly for wideopen desperately-needed 3's, and bricks them constantly.
He shouldn't be getting 27 minutes when Temple gets 28.
I don't care what people complain about incessantly in the game threads - Caulie-Stein deserves more time on the floor, and especially with Demarcus.
IIRC, one of the only times they've both been playing together, they gained 5 points vs the Blazers, and Joerger immediately pulled Willie.
There is zero justification for not starting Temple anymore.
It's become
ridiculous.
Lawson is currently >> Collison.
Again, there's no arguing that.
I want to see a starting 5 of:
Lawson
Temple
Rudy/Omri/Barnes (whoever isn't injured/sick/died of old age)
WCS
Boogie.
Just try something which is actually based off of on-court success, Joerger - just once!
