I still think it does have to do with vets and rookies and I think you proved my point by saying "lenard was hitting his shot." lenard is a vet, a good one at that, although no one believes me, that's fine. all he needs is a decent amount of minutes and he can do that every night. you can't look at how he's played for us this year and go oh he sucks, the poor guy's played about 2 minutes a game in the fourth quarter after sitting around getting cold the entire game. NO ONE plays good under those conditions. what he did last night, he can do again, he's a vet, he's smart, he knows how to win, he knows how to play, and he's cool under pressure, he just needs more than 30 seconds of playing time to do it. wouldn't you?

Tell me how Jack, Outlaw and Webster benefited from this game.

Miles is still the biggest waste of skin in the league and has no business playing one single minute.

i think we're fine with the ping pong balls, we're the worst team to ever walk the face of the earth.

and sitting DID help them, maybe it motivated them, maybe it showed them how to win a damn game and maybe it gave them hope. do you have any idea how depressed and despondent this team has become after losing so many games? i have no doubt in my mind it helped them in ways you cannot even imagine to finally win a game and get back on track. outlaw hopefully watched how to play basketball and learned, because we all know he needs a little bball iq boost, webster was having back spasms so why would you want to hurt him and play him? and jack got to watch and learn as well.

and obviously miles is a piece of crap, we all know that. i think he's playing so we can showcase and trade him to another stupid team with stupid management that thinks he's good.

In turn you prove what many people have said all year with what you say. It's hard to be consistant when you don't get a decent amount of minutes. Lenard doesn't help this franchise. Martell Webster on the other hand does.

Most likely anyway Darius Miles doesn't help this franchise. Viktor Khryapa and Travis Outlaw do though.

This year is a waste. Let the young guys learn on the floor.

With all due respect, I think there's a big difference between 30 seconds on the court at the end of the night and 10-20 minutes a game. And yes, I realize that doesn't apply to all of the rookies. .
