Seriously??? :D
Ever watched him play?... :rolleyes:

Casspi is used to playing 27 minutes a game (from last year).
The "leap" from 10 to 18 minutes is insignificant, IMHO.

Casspi is best as a spark off the bench. He is too bad nconsistent to be a legit starting sf. Not that we have any legit starting SF.

Everyone loves Casspi but he's behind better players at the moment. He's been a career backup and fits best in a Karl offense that is free wheeling and not so much in a structured offense.

Barnes plays a hard nosed style of defense. That is where Barnes is better than Aaron or Omri.

I think what Joerger wants makes Casspi a rough fit....ball movement and tough defense. He's behind the other guys at that position. He's a very poor passer but works hard on defense. Casspi in the Karl system? He did well but George isn't coaching this team.

Your overall carreer perception prejudice plays tricks on you!! (In Barnes' case)

This season Matt is a significantly lesser defender than Omri is.

Wanna check defensive win shares?
Even though he only plays 18 minutes per game, Omri is 5th on the team,
Matt is 8th and Aaron is 10th, with MUCH MORE playing time...

It gets even more evident if you rank by defensive rating
Omri is 2nd on the team, just ahead of Temple (!!)
Matt & Aaron are tied in 10th-11th place... (practically dead-last, together with Tolliver)

I'm kind of old fashioned, I just watch them play and judge for myself:)
