Willy and Holiday need to start from now on. Their ability to score is invaluable. Lee and Noah's skills are better off the bench. Willy and Holiday need 30 mins a game

Notice how the defense actually improves with Willy too?


I seem to recall getting beaten up by guys around here a couple of weeks ago for suggesting that he might be starter material at that time.

He is very basic...does the things he knows he can do...and was groomed to do in Spain, but I think the will become a much better offensive player over the next few years, especially from midrange.

I'm pretty sure everyone has liked Billy and the upside he has since we first saw him unless i missed anyone saying they didn't think so.


Know that...I still got dismissed, if I remember correctly. Just saying...although I might have jumped the gun after one of his better performances.

Like the idea.

He needs to be playing 28-32 minutes a game.

Tough to do with Noah making so much $$, but Noah has been very spotty.

Also seems like KOQ should be playing a few more minutes.

I would go 22-25MPG...increase it gradually, especially if he plays well and Noah doesn't.

I wasn't calling you out or anything and i'm sure some were dismissing you cause certain posters like to do that.

It's safe to say willy needs to be a big part of things moving forward.

If I were Horny, I would start the 3rd quarter with 1) BJ 2) Rose 3) Holiday 4) Melo 5) Willy.

I would not mess around. This unit is working.

Fellas, as bad as we looked in first Q. We are up by 4 at the half. KP 0 points, dont count on him getting shut out in second half. Willy came in and turned things around for us. Great effort. Would be great to see JH reward WIlly, Jennings and Holiday with starts in 3rd.

I liked the way the benched played and then how Rose and Melo continued the good defensive effort.

I also think some of that is not having Turner on the floor do to foul trouble.

Haha. I was thinking that exact thought

he said willy is a 27 yr old rookie

Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree

At some point, Hornacek really needs to commit to the lineups that work. He's killing the team by not doing it.

I'm not gonna get my hopes up for that. Jeff seems sensitive to the vets feelings.

I know that.

I think my post was premature, anyway. Was reacting to one a certain game...something that happens when you are grasping for straws to save the season and being disappointed by Noah.

This team goes through some stretches where they look like an elite team, and in the same game can look lottery like.
