Martin, was BRIGGS banned?
With that list then I see the starting 5 as...
Frank, THJr, Knox, Thomas, Kanter
10 man rotation bench - Burke, Baker, Vonleh, Robinson, Hezonja
I think Baker is ahead of Trier for now because of the intangibles that Baker gives.

Glad to hear Knox is coming off the bench. Sitting next to a vet, a coach. Someone to point out what to notice, before Knox gets on the court, is a good thing. For a while. Less pressure on Knox as well.

Briggs took a bath on Webistics, tough times.

agree, he is not ready to start yet, after all star break if he shows he can be consistent
frank starting over knox and lee. burke starting as well. who will help on frank's man when frank helps burke on D? hawks have double digit scorers at every position, and their most potent is taurean prince...frank's man. can't leave him open.
hopefully fiz is telling frank...dont help on trae.
and hopefully fiz is telling burke...you get burned on D repeatedly...i am pulling you.

Just for clarity: Lee is being held back a few games

I think he just had his first practice and they just want to make sure he's 100%

Fishmike, he got this
He wants Knox to start?
No.. I said Frank/Lance should start at the forwards to help cover for Burke/Enes who are our best offensive players along with THJr. I think this is good and our best lineup. I love the Frank's play pushed the right buttons and I hope even more Frank steps up and kills it.
I expect to see Frank guard Young a lot and Burke to switch off to Bazemore. We will see. The biggest offensive threat is Young's passing. It should be fun though! Obviously I am a Frank fan/believer and I love to see his defense used like a weapon. Let see how Fiz works this.

Agreed. Absolutely no rush. By the all star break kevin a mitch will be playing a good amount.

Good call. At the same time some of us have been saying that Frank is better suited off the ball (until proven otherwise) since he first suited up. So Im taking partial credit, heh heh.
I had no idea who Fizdale was going to start. Just knew that Knox should sit, even when he was tearing up the SL.

He predicted the correct starting five, mostly for the correct reasons. Credit where due.

Well see... Frank's highest ceiling is at PG. I mean an all NBA defensive player who plays the PG spot and can defend 1-4? Thats the hope. Right now I like playing him off the ball. Its like putting another PG next to a scoring PG to get him more easy scoring. Its just about taking advantage of your roster's skills and getting your young players time. Frank is a great defender TODAY. So playing him off the ball lets Fiz use this, lets FRank do what he does best and doesnt burden him with the responsibility of running the team.
Like you though I just want to see these guys out there and getting better. I love putting Frank at the 3 and using him to attack other players on defense.
Two pages long and no Natasha pics? I at least expected Martin to do his usual stalking,er, I mean investigative work and get Rebecca up. I guess the board is in tank mode....
