Why is Ronnie Brewer not getting more minutes?
#1 - Derek Fisher is undersized. Sloan needs to play him a lot more just at the PG position because our early-season balance of offense off the bench was deadly. Right now it's getting us in big holes.
#2 - Brewer shoots 51% from the field as a guard, probably closer to 53% after he went 5/6 from the field tonight, and not a ton of sample size. He's an excellent slasher, and a great finisher. Not to mention he's probably the best on the team at playing the passing lanes and getting very easy fast break points.
#3 - Bottom line is that CJ Miles and Brewer will make one hell of a tandem in the future, but it's hard for me to believe that if they are both riding the pine all game, every game.
Brewer certainly deserves minutes almost over Harpring sometimes, and should be the starting 2. Bring Fisher, Giricek and Harpring off the bench. Keep the attack balanced and we don't have to worry about these stupid spurt/drought type games that we've seemed to lose or deserved to lose during this trip. We could have very easily been 1-4 with the way the team has played, and the way the coaching staff has decided the line-ups.
I just don't understand it. Somebody help me here.
