I'm fine with our team thinking about trading away a PF to clear up the log jam, as long as that PF is Carl Landry. If it's JT, I'll have no choice but to pummel Geoff Petrie in the head with a catfish.
Maybe it's just one career game by JT, but with this performance he has to start now. You don't bench someone after they play like he is playing tonight.
JT has been playing better than Landry for awhile, he just hasnt gotten the minutes.
The dude has put up month long streaks of shooting 50% from the floor with far better rebounding, passing, and defense than Landry. He still makes the dumb mistakes, but I think this franchise needs to let him play through it. Trading him away would have been retarded.

100% agree, this isn't unusual for JT to have a game like this when he starts. He has more competition on our team this year for rebounds though which is a good thing!
Bulls defense has picked up, putting lots of pressure on the passes. Part of the reason the Kings aren't shooting is because they're wasting lots of time collecting bad passes. The defense closes out during that time.
