That's Gallo, Early, KP, Grant.

The first 3 I mentioned have been in the league 4 years or more. And they may have not received consistent minutes elsewhere, but whats up for debate is whether they should be given consistent mins or the expectation is that 4+ years in the NBA you will be on a short leash. FYI...they are 24, 25, and 26 years old respectively...Grant is 23 and expected to have been ready for the NBA game.


Is there a point in there somewhere???

Ridiculous. Pencil Jose in for 40 minutes tonight as Fisher knows he is hurt as well.

KP should get no minutes because he is 20 and playing time is determined by age.

So a player's age and not how well they play determines their minutes?

Good thing Fisher doesn't think this way or we would have never seen KP.

You guys also realize that one reason KOQ, Seraphin and even DWill have had trouble getting minutes is that KP is so good and has commanded a lot of minutes? You realize this, right?

KP is a rookie with European experience and out performing all other players on this roster who have same number of years of experience in college + nba combined. and FYI...he's averaging only 28 mins a game....so there's 20 mins just at his position..never mind Rolo's position and Melo's position.

Conley is a nice PG
crzymdups @ 2/5/2016 9:08 PM
That was a foul on ZBO pushing KP under the basket on that Gasol make.

Hope Fisher doesn't yank him and kill his confidence.

He was yanked last night but for some reason he still has confidence....what's going on here...lol

I think they thought KP might get 15-20mpg this year, not 28. I think they basically built the roster thinking he might not play at all.

Jose is a SG

I realize outside shooting is Grant's weak suit but when the other team knows he cannot or will not shoot, it destroys the integrity of our offense. That said, I don't know exactly what the team can do but it's an obvious Achilles heel.
crzymdups @ 2/5/2016 9:11 PM
Amazing Grant was able to steal that and make a layup considering how Fisher has yanked his minutes around all season.
Cartman718 @ 2/5/2016 9:11 PM
and the point is...if they were not going to get steady mins....i mean none of them...why were dwill, koq or seraphin brought in?
