What is so aggravating as a fan is that this should have been all figured out already..
These kids have been playing with each other for a while.. They went to Europe together and played games.. That time should have been used to figure rotations and style. Not in the beginning of December.
I could co-sign that. Very fair point.
It's unrealistic to believe a rotation should have been decided upon after a few exhibition games. Teams have different strengths, weaknesses, athleticism, etc... and it takes time to see how players play against different levels of competition especially when introducing new players into the system who were going to be highly reliant upon. Branch and Hooper seemed like world beaters in Europe, Jordan was the second coming, Sanchez is an NBA player. Lavin hasn't determined a rotation yet because the players' have struggled and he's trying to win basketball games and he's going to play those who will help him. It was clear that Lavin wasn't going into the season looking to rely on Greene. Seven games in, who predicted that Greene and Hooper would be starting over Sanchez, Jordan, Branch, and Pointer? To say this should have been discovered during our exhibition games is not realistic.
