Re: Sam's Rotation

That's what I think too, play one of the 8-11 guys at a time at most. A line-up of; Bosh, Humphries, Garbajosa, Peterson, Ford, wouldn't likely give up a ten point lead to the Sonics. Then again though, if you did that all game, and played your best five in crunch time. What would the minutes be like for our big time players. I know in reading :07 Seconds or Less, the book on the 2005-2006 Phoenix Suns season, Mike D'Antoni had certain player rotation rules he followed. I believe he would never have Nash on the bench in an important game, unless Diaw and Marian were on. Maybe when Bosh is off, TJ Ford and Andrea Bargnani should be on, to make up for lost creativeness on offense. At any rate, I have noticed that when good coaches take off their best players, they generally leave on their best remaining line-up. This hasn't been true in Toronto, worth a coaching change? I don't know, probably not. But it is something that he should work on.
