You seem to be under the impression most teams go with a straight starter/bench swap, with bigs as poor as Toronto's bigs. Putting Landry/Evans out there for any decent period of time against teams with more size and post-up ability, or with a penetrating threat will see us have serious issues defending.
I'm not predisposed to look at summer league as a real thing. Plus it was three months or so ago.
I guess that's what I'm doing differently from everyone else. I don't feel compelled to judge McLemore relative to Stauskas. I'm judging McLemore relative to himself. He looks better than he did last season to me. Not much better, but the season hasn't even started yet. Do I think he should start over Stauskas? I don't really care if he starts; I'm not a McLemore guy, and I'm not a Stauskas guy. But I do want to see more than one preseason game before decisions are made.
And i would agree with that. All i said was i predict Stauskas will be starting soon.
Except that rainmaker's comments have been in response to a comment that was actually made (that our post defense "looks better" with Cousins and Thompson on the bench), and your comments appear to be in response to a comment that nobody made (that we aren't playing our "scrub" frontcourt, just the same as they are).
Confident. Not forcing anything.
