Affalo isn't getting it done. Sorry to say. He's a power fwd in a shooting guards body. He doesn't lead. His body language sucks. He's slow and unathletic.

anyway if we could get a point guard and shooting guard to out play Calderón and Vujacic we'd be in the playoffs. They are our best guards and that says alot alot how bad we are.

I do not believe in giving mercy minutes. Out play who's in front of you and you will play. There should be no exception

He actually plays the way a guard should play in the Triangle. He's just not that talented. He clearly knows the offense and executes better and faster than our other guards. He's got a high motor which is also important. I would love to see him take Wroten under his wing and help him to get acclimated. Gallo and Jerian need to pay closer attention to what Sasha does. Aside from missing jumpers! LOL.

Well there is a poster called Nix who has a serious blind spot but other than him I am not sure.

I bet Rambis could go out and execute the offense better than O'Quinn but it doesn't mean he needs to be on the court. Sasha is a try hard guy that sucks at defending, shooting, and passing. It's actually laughable that he should get playing time over young guys that need minutes. Oh well.


Sasha is not a good player but his activity level does play an important role. The team gets into a malaise at times and is just dragging up and down the floor. Sasha at least picks up the energy. Shved did the same thing for the Knicks but he's a better player. When we have more than one guy playing uptempo it makes a difference.

Rambis tries to allow Gallo and Jerian to play thru mistakes but at a certain point he has to take them out. If they're playing the right way they'll stay in, but when they start messing up, it sometimes makes more sense to let them watch for a while and get some pointers from a coach on the bench.

Rambis level of acceptance for their mistakes are no where on the level of his acceptance of the vets mistakes. He is still coaching to win games by playing a player that is more likely to help you lose games. This is Kevin Love training 101 again.

Jesus! Sasha was +8 meanwhile Gallo was -3 and Grant -10. Like I said Rambo is playing the kids as much as they deserve. Losing doesn't automatically mean you're learning.

I like this Vujacic move . . . if for no other reason than it pisses off all the Triangle naysayers (!)

At this point, Sasha looks like more a positive guy.
