Re: Charlie Villanueva Makes The Rookie Team; Calderon and Graham Do Not

virtually the same numbers - I think they gave granger the nod to spread the exposure over more teams.

TJ Ford? I guess a season missed due to injuries don't count?

what are the minutes per game...I am sure Deron is getting a few more...I like what Jose brings...he would have been nice to watch in a no defence game like this one

Very close minutes between the two. Deron is averaging 26.5 MPG while Calderon has an even 26.0. One thing to note is that Deron has been in and out of Sloan's rotation. It seems both players are trying to fight through the rookie wall at the moment.

They're also averaging the same amount of TO's per game at 1.9, but I doubt the head honchos find it important...
