    He ran them in the ground.

    A few of us pointed that out when Russell, Randle, etc kept coming up short on shots and appeared to have tired legs.

    Yeah I figure it's pretty hard to gauge how to optimize player energy levels balancing practice, working out, and rest along with the players extracurricular activities. However, no one on the team is averaging more than 30 mpg. I'm just confused as to what's making them so tired when conditioning is supposed be the strong suit. On top of that, it doesn't seem the practices translate to games.

    I think we're living in the 80s.

    Maybe it's just wishful thinking on my part but I see this more of a criticism from players. This is the 2nd year in a row the "boot camp approach" has not worked. If this continues and falls on Byron's deaf ears... I expect a mutiny much sooner.

    GDI, same BS as last year. "I'm gonna try out this s*** rotation for 15 games. There's no way to know until then." Long live the Bass.Kelly froncourt I guess.

    THAT IS CRAP BYRON.

    I'm in the minority, but I like Kelly. He's not a 3 or a 5. He's a stretch 4. I'm going to get blasted for saying this, but oh well: we need to see more Kelly/HIbbert/Russell/ on the court. I'd also include Young in that spot who's been killing it on spot-ups and playing well in general.

    I like Hibbert with Russell but stretch 4s need to hit 3s though. Kelly is career avg down around Kobe's career avg on 3s. Yes, that bad .335. He's started of 1-5 this season. Several of those were uncontested too because he's missing the "stretch" part of the equation. Defenses are not fearing that shot from him. This guy is in his 3rd season, what the hell are we waiting for on him? Ok he has a "little" bit of weak side D ability and that fake/cut to the basket was nice in game one but he is essentially a one trick pony without the one trick right now.

    I'd give it more run. Wouldn't hurt. We're 2 games in and we're looking for rotations that work. It's worth the risk.
