Re:Assuming Gordon is gone, Rose with more scoring
Watch Chauncey Billups...and watch how Carmelo reacts to Billups. Carmelo gets the ball plenty of times, but Billups facilitates. Carmelo takes his shots when they are there, when they are not, he will pass the ball around. Billups is the quarterback, period. That is what you want in Rose. Run the offense. Not stand there and watch Ben dribble the ball and try to penetrate on the other team's 12 man roster. Rose should have the ball, period. No questions asked. That is all I am saying. I don't know how many times, Jalen Rose and Tim Legler pointed out on ESPN that the offense is too stagnant in Chicago. It happened numerous times, in the playoffs with Gordon, Salmons, and Hinrich. Too much dribbling, trying to get your shot, and not facilitating. Boston does not have that problem, Denver doesn't have that problem, the Lakers don't have that problem, Cleveland facilitates their offense through LeBron. Atlanta got a point guard so that Johnson would not handle the ball so much, even though he is very good at it. The PG runs the offense, let the PG run the offense, when the PG gets the ball to the SG and the SG has nothing left but a dumb ass shot, pass the ball, period.
That is all I want. I don't hate BG, I am a realist. Boston did not show at times that they wanted to win that series. Chicago just needed to be a bit more fluid offensively and they would have won. They can sign BG, but if I am VDN and he starts that Harlem Globetrotter crap, I sit his butt down! And dare anyone to ask me why I did it. Run the offense, go ISO when the coach says go ISO. That is all, that is what I mean by buying in. Gordon is the best scorer, he is also seriously erratic. Salmons showed consistency when healthy and could be just as potent scoring. He should start and Gordon should come off of the bench.
