Kingster
Hall of Famer
We just had our way in one of the tougher road environments in the NBA on the second night of a back-to-back and some people are pissed off because a guy who most likely won't be on our roster next year was benched in favor of a couple of dudes who certainly will be.
And for his part, Ray Mac, who Jimmer was certainly benched for, didn't really do anything to show me that he doesn't deserve minutes.
Do I feel bad for Jimmer? Sure, but, on a team that's clearly starting to build for the future, a guy who isn't going to be here next year shouldn't be seeing more time than the young guys who show two way potential. Plus, if Jimmer makes our team as awesome as some people apparently think he is, would you rather he not play to help ensure better a draft position?
If I'm just looking at the last two games in which Ray played minutes, he's shown nothing so far that would indicate to me he's a better player than Jimmer. We'll see how the next several games go for Ray. It may be a "neither of the above" choice.
