Are people just having a blind spot to how the team plays when Sasha is on the floor? If he was able to hit his shots at a higher % there would be no question about him playing. 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.
