Nate On The New Rotation

[Mediocre Man]

I'm not too concerned about this because Nate has a history of saying he's going to do something and then doing something different.

Why does the phrase "push the ball" come to mind right now?

For those who think Armon Johnson can't be relied upon because he's a rookie, I'd like to remind you that the Utah Jazz started an undrafted rookie at SG last year and reached the second round of the playoffs.

Sure. But to not recognize the odds of that being successful would be folly as well. There are many reasons to be skeptical until proven otherwise. The whole fact that Babbit and Johnson were on the same team and couldn't get their team to the NCAA tourney is one reason that will not get out of the back of my mind. Some players games translate much better in the pro's than in college, and you get your rare player like Richard Dumas, Michael Redd, etc. The facts are that not many 2nd rounders make it in this league, and even fewer of them are successful.
