I suggest a slight amendment (or rather, complementary exercise) for this thread. LB has said he prefers a 9 man rotation, with two bigs, a SF, and a guard off the bench. So given that framework, what do you fill in? Here's mine:

starters:
G Crawford
G Marbury
SF Q
PF Mo
C Curry

off the bench (in order of time of entry/minutes):
SF Ariza
PF/C Frye
PF Lee
PG Nate

The 8 man rotation I had was a bit strained for PG play. Nate could step in and give something like 10mpg.

Also I made a little change to my SL. I list Marbs and Craw both as G rather than assigning one PG and the other SG. They should switch off duties during games depending on matchups, flow, etc. But in general, I like Craw handling on the break and setting up the early offense, and I like Steph looking for his offense more as a finisher and 'secondary' PG who creates off his drives as a secondary option in the offense. I also want Marbury handling the rock in late shot clock / game ending situations.

I'd rather do that on another thread. Just to keep it simple.

That way everyone stays fresh for the entire season and hopefull the playoffs !! The kids develop and a 10 man rotation is great ( see Memphis last year ) That way if anyone gets hurt then the guys are already in the rotation and we just shorten it up instead of adding someone into it !!

It seems a lot of posters have definitive ideas on who should or should not be playing - but in total I'm hearing a lot of different names. Personally, I can see why Brown is having trouble figuring it out. So, I'd like to see what you are thinking. Pick your eight - just eight - I want to see who people think should be getting significant minutes. If you'll indulge me do it before reading everyone else's responses.

not that it matters...and i think things will turn around for the better...but here goes

c curry
pf davis
sf ariza
sg crawford
pg marbs

richardson as 6th man filling in for crawford with crawford playing some pg; richardson could also spell ariza tho he appears to not really be suited for the 3 spot.
james spelling curry and davis
frye spelling davis and getting good minutes when the team needs a momentum change
lee playing the 4 and 3 when frye's in there
rose should be a defensive stopper

butler, barnes, hardaway, robinson, taylor can wait for injuries or whatnot...tho appears butler may end up supplanting james sooner rather than later.

eg
