I really think this injury is gonna kill us not only defensively, but offensively as well. The closing line up of Kirk-Jamal-and Joe spread the court and we had 3 players who are capable of creating and hitting big shots.. Now Marvin's role in late game situations will probably become very important. I assume we will close with Jamal-Joe-Marv-Josh-Al. I don't know about you guys, but I am not a huge fan of Jamal at the point, I just don't think it works. He can create very good for himself, but i'd rather have him being set up by off screens for catch and shoot opportunities. The balls stays still when Jamal and Joe play the point.
A big question I have is about the Rose situation. I do NOT want Jamal guarding him. I suppose Teague will start and guard him, but Teague won't be in the game late in the 4th. Do you think we should try Joe on him? Maybe Damien Wilkins? This situation really confuses me with only one point guard on the team now. Larry Drew has some big decisions to make.
Thoughts?
