Who do I want vs. who will do best?
Who I want to do best vs. reality?
So Im stuck. Morris on this roster kind of messes me up. I don't get it. I don't get a lot of things and rotations is at the top of my list.
Who I want:
Frank
DSjr
RJ Barret
Knox
Mitch.
These are last years guys and our prize pick. On the bench fuming would be:
Payton
Trier
Morris
Randle
Portis
I know we didn't pay Randle to sit and my blue chip wish list lacks the grit that our free agent class brings which is why we imported them.
I swap Randle for Knox......
Frank
DSjr
RJ Barret
Randle
Mitch.
Payton
Trier
Morris
Knox
Portis
Now I look like the Frank "homer" I might be. Then there is the issue of Morris. I'm afraid of Frank having to shower with him so I have to make this adjustment:
DSjr
RJ Barret
Morris
Randle
Mitch.
This seems to be the conventional line up with many. Just as easy could see Payton starting and Smith on the second unit. Im not "hedging" cuz I'm not "betting"!
Frank
Payton
Trier
Knox
Portis
My second unit now has three guards and who is rebounding? I install Gibson. Maybe Knox plays some PF. Looks like he pumped up those shoulders!
Frank
Payton
Knox
Gibson
Portis
Where is Trier? He is at the dermatologist having his "IsoZo" tattoo removed. If you know anything about tattoo removal (I don't) then you know its a "Process". Trier is 31 years old (a joke) and needs to keep working. If either Frank or Payton can't hit the side of the barn, then Trier comes. Somebody will be injured and he will get minutes. Fact is it might be Ellington. This second unit will run. Its why I have Frank and Payton. Can't run without defense. Both are very good. Payton is streaky. That's "Latin" for "inconsistent". Frank is "inconsistent" which is Latin for "He is only 21 get off his back". Taj can hit the outside shot as can Portis.
Trier/Ellington That's my 12. Dotson? I don't know. For all I know he starts!!! I suck at this.
Iggy either on the bench or Gleague. His summer league had him as the next Landry Fields. Kadeem? Bullock?
Landry Fields?? Married a hot model, two sons now. General Manager of the Austin Toro's Gleague team. He alright.
Malik Monk and Willy Hernangomez? Question is are the Knicks better than the Hornets??
