Cj is a small guard, so thibs doesn't really like putting him out there. He's a defensive coach, so it might go against his better judgements to do so. However we're getting nothing, i mean nothing, out of bogans.

If Cj is given significant minutes, and he's not asked to create for others, the guy can give you pretty efficient offense. Why not lower bogans minutes to nothing, and go small. CJ at the 2 and rose at the point. He's not a great shooter, but he's soo good at getting to the line. Plus after he gets to the line a couple times, his shots start going down.

i'm not saying start cj, let's just go with this lineup in lieu of giving bogans minutes.

Is Lucas a good ball handler and distrubitor?

Have Watson at the SG.

Lineup:
Rose
Watson-Brewer
Noah
Deng
Taj (until Boozer come back)

2nd string:
Watson as the pg for Rose to get a break
Brewer-Watson (when Rose is in)
Korver
Asik
Taj or Boozer

Also, fit Bogans in the rotation.

I dont mean use lucas as your ball handler. That guy is pretty useless. If rose is injured in the kings game, that should be the only scenario lucas gets minutes.

rose 37/ 10 watson
bogans -5/brewer 13/ put watson out there with rose for 15 minutes/ korver 15
Deng 30/ 12 korver
Taj 36/ deng 6/noah 6
Noah -32/asik 16

i dont think he's a bad player, but he needs to see minutes relative to his contribution on the court.

Brewer initially was supposed to be the starter until he got dinged up. Now that hes getting better, why cant he be back at starting SG? He outplays Bogans on the court every single night. His chemistry with Noah looked pretty damn good too last night from what i saw. He's better defensively and can get to the basket. Better rebounder too. Bogans is more likely to make a 3, but i think the chances of either of them hitting that shot is low enough to say fk it, lets play the better player!
