I think q will get it cuz he has been playing better of late plus better d.... I would like to see jalan start cuz I feel our offense could benefit from his savvy .... but I think its more important that we raise Q stock plus he younger what can j rose really do for us long term?

Actually I sort of think it is no question that Rose should come off the bench but the choice should be Lee or Q and I really don't have a real preference...they both bring the same D, it's just Q may bring more outside shooting while Lee may bring you more intensity. thing is, If you put Q on the second unit he may not have to play with Steph.

Marbury, Francis, Q, Lee, Curry (run run run) and bring Rose, Frye, Crawford off the bench

It'll be interesting to see what rotation LB uses tonight.

I'd start Q or Lee for the Dee. In fact I think I like fish's lineup the most. That unit seems like it'd have the best blend of O and D our roster can muster.

For raw offensive output, a Curry/Frye/Rose/Francis/Marbury lineup should be incredibly hard to contain though. That could be a real powerhouse of an offense.

Lee over Frye is interesting but i tell you what, I think it'll be more interesting if LB gets down to business and benches Curry until he can play like a true center, D and all.....

Marbury/Francis/Q/Lee/Frye

I really hate the fact that we have Rose on the team, if we didn't make the Francis deal then fine, but Isiah is a ****ing ******* and he is taking away minutes that should go to Lee....

Do like the D Q has been playing.....

tell us how you really feel MS...

That's ****ing right man. Fucking Isiah definitely had his mother****ing head up his ****ing ass when he came up with the stupid ****ing plan to bring sorryass Jalen Fucking Rose and his ****ing piece of **** contract here.

i actually like that for Lee's rebounding but im cool with either frye or lee starting......


I Changed my mind.. i DEFF think Q should start because we need Rose's smarts/ball moving in that second unit

One thing I'm actually starting to like about this trade is we now have two consistent studs to break down the defense. If we can put them out on the floor with other shooters and athletes who are willing to give some effort on D, it will at the worst be fun to watch.

In thinking about the philosophy behind this trade, the money doesn't faze me (we are only going to add more salary this summer), what bothers me the most is pulling the trigger so early on the Jalen trade. That trade, while the pick was nice, killed our flexibility at the deadline and was a total panic move while Marbury was out. It resulted in 1 win over what, 11 games of Jalen? Now Jalen is spare part. Maybe his ball movement is a help, but I'm guessing he'll be looking for his own shot when he does get the ball.

One thing Larry REALLY has to instill to these guys is ball movement to make this work. Steph and Steve are going to get 15-20pts just being on the court, they need to make sure to get Frye, QRich, Curry and Jalen and (hopefully) DLee involved. It will be an interesting experiment to watch, and we really have nothing to lose at this point.

To me, there's not a ton of risk attached to this trade. We were killed by Craw's inconsistency all season, Francis will give us that consistency, plus things Craw could never do. If Marbury/Francis works, you have an excellent talent base with which to build on this summer. If you can add a healthy Kmart over the summer without giving up Frye, then the roster makes a lot more sense.

Just, the Rose trade is still frustrating and seems like a very expensive patch job that didn't patch a thing.
