Q is the worst choice of the 3 but unfortunately is the one starting.

Even if you completely HATE Marbury, you still have to start him to keep his stats and trade value up and to make it look like you're not desperate to get rid of him.

Q has been a disaster. I kinda liked it when Steph and Nate were starting, but eventually, once Jamal completely gets his head to where it should be, and I sense it's coming sooner than we think, than he should be starting full time. I don't even understand why people would even think of bringing Marbury off the bench.

Nate brings good energy off the bench. Never liked Nate starting becuase it cuased too many mismatches on defense. Marbury has to guard taller, and stronger 2 guards and while nate is good at full court pressure, once the Pg gets over the half court line, Nate is at a disadvantage because evryone can shoot over him

you know what? I actually think it should be penny, nate and craw always play well together and they should play together as part of the second unit, I think penny is actually better than q, at this point I think q will only be useful as a rbounder and defender.

I agree. I just want guys in there who play hard *consistently* and on *both* ends of the court. I'd start Nate and Trevor.

So why not offer us the option to have Nate and Crawford start in the back court with Marbs off the bench for garbage time?????

Crawford does NOT play hard consistently on both ends of the court. He does occasionally and we have much lower expectations for him than for Marbury so he looks wonderful to many of us. But no one with his skill set who was playing hard consistently would be averaging 11 PPG on 35% shooting AT HOME. He should be attacking the basket hard and getting 8 FTAs a game like Marbury.
