yea going forward it will look like this barring foul trouble or injury:

PG: Golden 34/Richardson 6
SG: Richardson 19/mcbee 15/mcrae 6
SF: Tatum 32/mcrae 4/woolridge 4
PF: Stokes 30/ maymon 10
C: Maymon 20/ hall 20

yemi or miller are likely to get a minute or two a game in certain spots. CCM has clearly made a decision to start trying to get everything he can from his guys minutes wise and i like it.

Miller showed today why he should never be out there. Same with Washpun who, other than the one nice steal, was just a warm body with no threat to do anything.

And McRae is continuing to show that he was overrated coming out of high school. He offers nothing to the team.

On the positive side, Richardson showed some flashes of promise on the offensive end. His defense was great as well.

You mean all those posters saying play Wes and miller instead of golden and hall were dead wrong?!

You know, now that I think about, Martin said he wouldn't have the rotation set until January IIRC.

Has Woolridge played any 3 since CM said he was going to start seeing minutes there?

I may have missed it but I don't remember seeing him there at all yet.

What is it with you? Always trying I told you so's and drama in almost every thread.

Wash played well in limited minutes when he played, which is what is needed. Miller did ok as well, considering he hadn't played in weeks. As a matter of fact, it shows that CM and others here were on the same page because they played yesterday and played early.

He played the 3 against uga I believe had about 9 minutes, a few may have been in the post. He seemed unable to guard their 3 so CCM pulled him.

Washpun played well in limited MINUTES? Did we watch the same game he logged 1 minute of play and had a turnover the first time he tried to dribble it against Uconn. CCM yanked him right out and he didnt see the floor again. Clearly the coach doesn't feel he played well as mcbee and Richardson took back up pg duties not Wes.

Miller played because it was Uconn and they needed the body I'm fine with him playing. He did take a bad shot and was lost on D a few times but yemi is about the same level so for 3 minutes it doesn't much matter.

To claim your on the same page a CCM is hilarious. You say Wes played minuteS and played well which is what we need, clearly CCM disagrees as he played ONE minute and was yanked right out and not put back in. Clearly CCM didnt see this good play you speak of, and felt it wasn't what we needed.

Washpun didn't have a TO. Actually, he forced one, then came out because the pg had enough rest surrounded by a tv timeout. And McBee played no back up pg yesterday. Wash, Richardson and Cam did.
Wash didn't play point in the second half because you don't put a true freshman in at that point in the game.
Miller had an offensive rebound in limited time and brought some aggressiveness. If those two plays led to 4 points in a low scoring game, it's a huge bonus for the team.

And yes, CM is adjusting his lineup as needed, as many have suggested.

Are you certain this is correct? I watched every second of that game and don't remember him playing the 3. I only listened to most of yesterday so I might have missed him playing it yesterday but I swear he didn't in the Ga game.

I'm 100% he did against uga as I said it may have only been a couple minutes though.

Wes played 1 minute and had 1 turnover did you not watch? Ask anybody on here he had it stripped the first time he dribbled, did you not see? I seem to remember a high school senior playing in the second half yesterday, but yet you don't play a true freshman you say?

Comparing Stokes to Wash?

Wash didn't have a turnover and had a steal. Ban bet?

You bring good input, but get to focused on "I told you so's", as is evident all over the thread. If you are going to do that, you'd be best to go at it with someone who knows less than you about basketball.

To add to what I said earlier, wash played just under 2:00 of gametime and got them to the 12:00 tv timeout, which gave another 3:00 rest to trae. He didn't get pulled for bad play. He played his role as asked.

You stated you don't put a freshman in that spot didn't you? Stokes is a freshman that's all I was saying. I have the game TiVo when I get home i check I was 99.999% he had a turnover when he came in. I knew of the steal he had that was a great physical play. If he didn't have a turnover I will gladly admit I was wrong.

If ccm was more confident in Wes we would have him out there at back up pg instead of cam or josh seeing as how it is his position. It has nothing to do with age, he simply isn't good enough yet.

Listening to the game bob said he had his pocket picked but the ball went out of bounds. So no turnover if I remember hearing it correctly. I didn't watch that part of the game so I could be wrong.

Playing a draft pick kid at the 4 is in no way comparable to playing a limited minute and talent pg who is handling the ball. You said he was yanked for bad play. That's incorrect. He played his role and had a positive play. That's all he needs and he's good enough to play a role. CM is not going to give it to wash in the 2nd half against those guards and a #11 team.

No need to dvr and no need to admit. Wash was on the right near hash
and had the ball swiped out of bounds. That's not a turnover. He then stole it on the other end and drew a foul.
Actually, I hadn't thought about Richardson at point and I like it. I like it better than Cam or Wash.

I was just stating you do play freshman if you have confidence in them, he doesnt in wes. Cam and josh played some back up point in the first half and wes was on the bench he could have came in then but ccm chose not to.

Oh ok that was it then he had it stripped but it went out, I was probably too busy freaking out about it to see whose ball it was. Richardson seems to be the guy that ccm likes to use at the spot but he has to stay out of foul trouble so his minutes can stay up.
