Krstic is not ready, bring him off the bench to play against backup scrubs. Sean is our best big and his weakside shotblocking will compliment Collins post defense. To bad Sean won't play next game</p>
 
No. It doesn't need to be done. Don't be silly.</p>
 
No he shouldn't...yet.</p>

He needs to be the 1st big off the bench though. For one you can't reward a rookie that fast with a starting position, we need to keep him motivated so more playing time is enough for now.</p>

Why not?</p>

Wow a guy has a few good minutes against a drained defense on the tail end of a back-to-back, and this thread pops up? I know Sean Williams from seeing him a lot in college, and to me he is way too raw for a starting job at this point. He will definitely give you some quality minutes in spurts, but he won't keep it up consistently.</p>

He's a rookie, with very raw offensive talent. He is far too over-anxious, as was obvious with some of the mistakes he made tonight. This was his first significant playing time all season. You don't just throw a rookie into the starting line-up like that, with so little actual meaningful experience.</p>

</p>
 
You can't start him because he had one good game. You gradually increase his minutes first, and then move on from there. This isn't NBA live.</p>

Bingo. Starting him may actually have a negative effect. If you throw him into the fire, and he completely falls apart, who knows what will happen with his confidence.</p>

Nah I think it needs to be done.</p>
  1. Krstic isn't anything close to what he should be.
  2. Sean Williams' length has shown itself to be a valuable asset on the defensive end. If he's not blocking shots he's altering them.
  3. Malik is at his best when he's a smart player, but I'm not seeing him have as much of an impact as Sean.
  4. His ability to play our pick and roll offense is there. Heck is ability to score on the block was impressive.
  5. His stats tonight:

Sean Williams scored 10 points, and 4 rebounds in 11 minutes by shooting 80%. You stat geeks can fall in love with his stats per 40mpg.</p>

True.</p>
 
Getting rewarded with playing time now kills confidence? I don't know if Marcus and Antoine would agree with you guys.</p>

As for blaming his success on shoddy D, he was defending KG on the post for most of that span.</p>
 
He's gotta get more playing time I agree, but starting? No way.</p>
 
One thing I will say, though, is that Sean should definitely be the first big off the bench. Magloire is like a zombie out there, so stiff.</p>
 
I hate our bigs, like really. I bet Real, GM3, GMJigga and Kidd, the poster, can make a better big rotation. I fucking hate them!!!!</p>

Nice way to twist words around, eh? I'm not saying he shouldn't get more PT. I'm saying he shouldn't start. Biiiiiig difference.</p>

Who knows? Maybe we have a gem in Young Seany. he's certainly outplaying our other bigs in shorter minutes and we threw Krstic into the fire and he turned our alright,</p>
 
I dont think Krstic should be starting right now but Sean is not the guy to replace him.</p>

Sorry, I didn't mean to twist, I guess I just misinterpreted it. I could see how being labeled a starter places pressure on a young player, but surely this is outweighed by the confidence the organization places behind you. If getting more PT is good isn't getting more, better?</p>

Of course getting more PT is better. But, starting? No. First big of the bench? Definitely.</p>

I concur !!</p>

Starting Sean Williams !!!</p>
 
Krstic should be off the bench, he should start from the bench, and score over the scrubs.</p>
 
But should Krstic continue to play against other starters? Would be it better for him offensively and defensively to come in and play against 2nd unit guys until he gets his rhythm back?</p>

Sean Williams was nice today. He did a better job against Garnett than I thought. And going back to preseason he's also been the most active, energetic big for the Nets. I don't mind seeing him get a start and see how he does playing with the starters and see how good Kidd can make him look. I guess he'll make his mistakes but the pay off could the experience he gains and what it could mean for the Nets later on in the seasons.</p>

It will be more fun watching him than watching Collins and Magloire miss or get their shots blocked in the paint.</p>

Krstic is looking like a child out ther with the likes of KG and co. Let him build his confidence up by playing against backup big men and ease him into the starting role. It's a big rush for him right now.</p>

</p>
 
I completely agree. I think Collins + S. Williams would work very well together for reasons that I've said before, while I've long had my doubts about Collins + Krstic. Collins doesn't play very much, however, and they should take Collins and Williams out simultaneously. Once healthy, Krstic would obviously play more than either Collins or Williams, but I'd continue to play him off the bench.</p>
 
I don't know if I can take a whole season of watching Collins AND Magloire missing or getting their shots blocked around the rim. Has Magloire caught a pass off a pick and roll and finished yet? Wait, has he even managed to catch a pass off a pick and roll?</p>
 
Sure, Collins + Sean = Collins + KMart.</p>

</p>

well, that's easy, you have to explain why it works.</p>
 
NO! I DON'T WANT COLLINS STARTING EVER AGAIN!!! HE'S SOO BAD!! HE WOULD NEVER EVEN PLAY ON MOST OF THE OTHER TEAMS IN THE LEAGUE!! I GUESS I WOULD BE ALRIGHT WITH COLLINS AND SEAN TOGETHER EVEN THO COLLINS IS A JOKE BUT I WOULD ONLY DO THAT IF SEAN CONTINUES TO SCORE LIKE HE DID AGAINST BOSTON CUZ WE CAN'T AFFORD TO PLAY 3 ON 5.</p>
