Who starts the rest of the season: Huerter or Bogi

[JayBirdHawk]

 

Unlike when Nate was emphatic on Clint as the starter over OO, there is some wiggle room here

I said Bogd but only because I think the 2nd unit will need Kevin.  IOW, I think Kev can survive without the starters.  Not sure if Bogd can.

Plus, if Bogd is healthy, he's better.  Yeah I said it.  Come at me, peo ... I mean, bros...

[swanlee]

Kevin should start until he loses steam or gets injured

[hazer]

I think Bogi is damaged goods, and the 25-game starting stats on The Huert are just “toooo gooood.” K’Von gets my vote

[macdaddy]

If you got 2 guys roughly equal (right now) then you go with the one who's here long term.   

I still think Bogi is the better player when healthy but he has to show it.   

[Gray Mule]

A starter shouldn't lose his position because of injury.

That being said, if he can't, then he loses his starting spot.

[Sothron]

If Bogi is 100% healthy he needs to be the starter because he's a better player than Kevin and he fits better with Trae. If Bogi is not 100% healthy then he needs to be on the second unit.

There is where I am.  @JayBirdHawk give the third option if Bogi is 100% healthy.  I think he's better than Kevin if he's 100%.  However, long term it looks like Kev will be our starting two.  He does so much to connect the team.

but will he be 100% or how close to 100% and when?

[bleachkit]

Bogi has more upside but Kevin is a little more steady. They will probably get similar minutes either way.

[RedDawg#8]

Doesn't matter as long as Nate is willing to be flexible with the in game rotations and who finishes.

I say Bogi only because Kev is a better fit with the 2nd unit. But whoever has the hot hand that night needs to be on the floor to finish the game.

 

[Plainview1981]

Bogi is not reliable from a health standpoint. It should be Kevin I guess.

Is there a start both and bench Hunter option??  I'm only kidding but how in the heck do we explain these two lineups???

That's why I need the option.  They don't need to let him come back unless he's 100%.

Hunter struggled his first 10 games of the season.

More interested in how the Huerter / Bogi combo has a +32 Net Rating on the 2nd highest minutes of the season.  I want Hunter on the court as much as possible for his defensive presence, but +32 is nothing to scoff at.

I'd say that's chemistry that they built last year in the playoff run.   But Kev and Hunter have chemistry now too.

[Peoriabird]

Huerter by default

Bogi stinks!
