ngc7 Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 st---Teague,johnson, smith horford , pachulia bench----hinrich crawford wilkins williams then whichever scrub big feels good. we have energy in the first from teague and pac and our bench is much deeper. if pac looks like crap early bring marvin or wilkins in early and move smith and horford to 4 and 5.

If Zaza comes back to playing like Zaza did 2 years ago I say give him the chance the start. He hasn't really been playing strong this season, he doesn't have the heart. Last night may have been one of his best games all year. Good to see him play with some hustle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If both Teague and Zaza play with high levels of confidence, then yup that lineup looks pretty solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tremor Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Zaza stands no chance against bigger centers with low post game which Camby has not. We need to adjust our frontcourt on per game basis like LD successfully did earlier in the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coachx Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 st---Teague,johnson, smith horford , pachulia No. That lineup is so easy to defend. A basic zone defense would shut that lineup down with no perimeter shooters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bawse Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 With Hinrich and Teague both starting you have solid quickness and defense at the guard position. Hinrich could easily switch if he had to. Kirk is a combo guard. Also when it comes to "running plays", having Kirk starting at the same time as Teague would help as well. Bottom line for me is that Jeff has shown some hope with the amount of playing time he's gotten so far. I see no reason why we shouldn't start him.

RedDawg#8 Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 isn't he like undefeated as a starter since the Bibby trade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member mrhonline Posted March 13, 2011 Premium Member Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Kirk is a combo guard. I'm of the opinion that Hinrich's assets are wasted at the 2. Anyone else agree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawse Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 I'm of the opinion that Hinrich's assets are wasted at the 2. Anyone else agree? He's less affective sure, but on this team his defense would thrive and he could also take over the point if Teague was struggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaceCase Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 I'm of the opinion that Hinrich's assets are wasted at the 2. Anyone else agree? I do but I'm getting the suspicion that if Teague emerges as the starting 1 that Kirkland will replace Jamal entirely as the combo off the bench come next season.

HawksFan87 Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 (edited) Hinrich IS a PG not a SG or Combo Guard.. Also that lineup with Teague and Hinrich both starting, will only work against certain teams. Edited March 13, 2011 by jsmoovefan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joker Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 It's worth a try depending on the match-up. We can try a lot of different rotations but I don't see any rotation getting us out of the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless Marvin is moved, I think it's a given that the Hinrich trade was about replacing Jamal next year. I actually think that part of the deal is a smart play. Jamal will cost too much for the Hawks to keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTruth Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 I do but I'm getting the suspicion that if Teague emerges as the starting 1 that Kirkland will replace Jamal entirely as the combo off the bench come next season. This would be ideal. Having a real backup PG, who plays defense, who could run plays (should be much more familiar with our "system" and plays by then) and can score a little bit would, in my opinion >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> a Jamal Crawford that plays little D, tends to chuck, and can disrupt the offense by "getting his." But eh, that's just me. As for the topic at hand, Kirk's assets ARE wasted as a 2 guard. His D is very good, but not as good against other 2 guards. People must remember that he is only about 6' 4''...many SG's will be taller than that (although he does an excellent job staying with his man). With all of our current personnel (from ownership to the players), if Teague can get the minutes AND produce like he did last night on a somewhat consistent basis, it will grant us increased flexibility in how we perform as a team AND give us options this offseason in regards to, hopefully, trading or casting off certain players.
