Game Thread GAME# 20: BULLS @ BLAZERS - NOVEMBER 29, 2019 - FRIDAY, 7:00 PM, NBCSNW

Staggering.

Clearly in order to start Hood and play him with the second unit you would have to stagger the lineups. How you would stagger the lineup is the more complicated question given how limited this roster is. Was curious if you were suggesting playing guys like Mario with Dame/CJ in order to put Hood with the second unit, or how you planned to make that happen.

Well Stotts is already bringing in Little and 1M while moving between Skal and Whiteside. We are seeing Baze and Trent. That's 9 players. We have seen Tolliver whenever fouls become an issue and he has done well in the few games he has got 5-10 mins in. So the staggering is already happening.

Well you better change your expectations, cause his game ain’t changing anytime soon. That’s like moving to Phoenix....... not liking hot weather.......and bitching about it everyday.

weak analogy.

it would be like if Neil Olshey spent several years hyping up Phoenix and the weather, then forced everybody into his moving van and moved us all to Phoenix....and moved us all into the most expensive neighborhood. Sure, some people are fine with Phoenix so they were OK with the move and the bloated rent. But a lot of us have always felt that Phoenix was grossly overrated, especially by Olshey, and it sucks that we have to pay so much money to live in a mediocre city that only has a couple of above average features....and the weather sure as hell isn't one of them. So fuck yeah, we're going to bitch about it. I mean, if you gotta live in Arizona, live in Tuscon; it's not as hot and only costs half of what Phoenix does, and has just as many features. Albuquerque is even better but it's in a state that actually plays defense

I thought it was happening as well, but some did not. Good post!

Yeah that was a really weak analogy. What does living in Phoenix have to do with CJ playing basketball?

I assume they will have a couple more pieces to stagger if Nurk or Collins return. Though something tells me Collins won't be effective this year.
