C--Hill
F--Lee
F Chandler
G Robinson
G Duhon

Bench players
F Gallinari
F Jefferies
F Harrington

I kind of saw this yesterday. Nate Rob is still better as a guy who can play a combination of lead guard and 2G and we played better D with Hill in there. You can sub out Duhon for a F and move Nate to the PG slot as he gets a feel for the game.

i agree that Nate is better as a 2 but having Duhon & Nate as your starting backcourt makes u real small... i'd rather start Hughes at the point w/Nate at the 2 & have Duhon come off the bench, at least til the trade deadline anyway... this is probably how Duhon should be used to begin with.

I think Nate can play PG--but he has to get his head into the game as a 2G--once the play is moving--you could shift Nate to PG for the majority of the game and either bring Chandler or Gallinari off the bench to play 35.


Something like this

C-Hill--27 minutes
F--Lee 37 minutes
F Chandler or Gallinari 35 minutes
G Nate 38 minutes
G Duhon 15 minutes
6th man Chandler or Gallinari 35 minutes
Harrington 24
Jefferies 24
Douglas 7

MDA won't use a 9 man rotation even tho i agree we should go that route... after the deadline, i hope to see this

C - Hill 25 min
PF - Lee 38 min
SF - Gallo 32 min
SG - Chandler 35 min
PG - Douglas 25 min
6 - Nate 35 min
7 - Harrington 30 min
8 - Jeffries 20 min
------------------
9 - Landry
10 - Duhon
11 - Hughes
12 - Bender

won't even matter to me if TD can play the PG position or not... he needs to see minutes there before the summer so we can see if he can adapt to the role... & we still need to get guys like Nate & Jeffries burn so they can attempt to trade them this offseason somehow... Duhon, Hughes & Bender will have no real trade value after the deadline passes anyway, so u can sit them the rest of the way or buy them out if they raise a fuss.

At this point, any line up with duhon is going to struggle, he's doing nothing to help this team

I'd like to see Robinson start with Douglas. We could use Douglas' D and his offense is better than Duhon's. He can switch off with Nate at off guard/PG. Nates gonna be better at getting into the lane anyway.

Hopefully we trade Harrington at the deadline and we start throwing in Hill for 30 mins a game. Personally I think he's gonna do just fine once he starts getting his consistent playing time.
