I too am getting burnt out of the constant merry-go-round that is masks/vaccines/politics, and I definitely fell into the trap of adding to it here. I'll try not to make that mistake again.
SH, just to be clear, I hope I did not come off as accusing you of anything. It is not for me to say what people should or shouldn't discuss. My comment was mainly answering my own internal question as to what excuse I had for wading into these waters myself. Nevertheless, I appreciate your turning the conversation back to basketball.
Back to basketball:
Was thinking about Sterling Brown and the amount of time he gets during the game. After 3 games I'm curious why he's getting the nod over Josh Green. It's not like either can score and if we're looking for playmaking Green gets the edge there too. He hasn't been able to throw a ball into the ocean much like the rest of the team, so I'm trying to give him some slack but if this continues, do you think Green gets a step up in the rotation? Or does Bullock get featured more heavily?
From what I have seen, there are a lot of people who share your curiosity about the merits of giving S Brown minutes over Green or some of the other players. If I were to venture a reason, it would probably be that Kidd is still trying things out, and he may already have a good bit more information on Josh than he does on Brown.
It is certainly possible that Green will step up. My own guesstimate would be that he may be more likely to do that a little later in the season, and that Bullock would probably be the more likely immediate beneficiary of Brown's minutes being cut. However, that is just based on my three-game observation of their various performances, and not on anything I have heard from a team source or from sourced reports.
What say you on the subject?
