Agreed, but i think for now it offers a chance to see different lineups and keep our guy's minutes low. You don't want Rolo playing more than 24 mpg anyways. I think Lance and O'Quinn have both played as well or better than Rolo, but i think it's a good problem to have. We have talked about Lance a lot, but O'Quinn has quietly been very impressive as well.

I still think Derrick was worth the gamble. I still like Afflalo unless we get Batum. He is an average NBA player but above average when it comes to guards around the league. He and the rest of the team will benefit greatly from a PG other than Calderon & Galloway.

Some of these moves Phil have made have been atrocious especially the Tyson for Calderon trade and the Lopez signing. Really shows his inexperience as GM/President despite all his knowledge of basketball and hall of fame credentials.

I was estatic at the start of free agency we we signed Affalo. I thought for sure Greg Monroe was next. Settling for a Stegosaurus/ lumbering Lopez was a huge shocker and a slap in the face to the fans who invested so much hope in finally having cap space again after the Amare debacle

I guess you can argue that.

Generally speaking, most all above average free agents move teams at a price, and I think that goes more for big men. We would have overpaid bigtime for Monroe too, right? What has Monroe done for the Bucks so far? And he comes at a more expensive contract.

Aldridge was never coming and I am not sure I would want to pay him for 4 years of service starting at 30 years old.

Who else was out there at a reasonable price that was starter material? Anyone who offers up Cole Aldrich can go suck-it, that answer is for pansy's and should be properly laughed at.

Rolo has definitely under-performed IMO.

I think O'Quinn has actually been pretty good. He needs a more consistent role. The rotation really messes with these guys.

koq was brutally terrible last game

we do run some PnR obviously.

So, here is the thing for me: How much do you run some post play for Rolo? Does he get a chance? No chance? Learning curve? 10-20 games and give up?

When and where and how do players learn if they can't have some leeway to fail? Is he trying to do the right things and can't? Getting better? Not doing anything?

What lines do you draw?
