I am the biggest Peja supporter, but I kind of want him to sit out longer.... I am enjoying watching these last 2 games with Garcia and Martin :)

Props to Kevin Martin tonight too. I haven't been his biggest fan, but he's playing very smart ball tonight in addition to making use of his athleticism.

Wow. What a difference a real PG can make ... 10 assists by Kidd. I didn't even realize it ...
Who cares who gets the assists? The Kings have as many assists at this point. Watching so many players on a team setting up their teammates is a thing of beauty, too.

AGREE :p

In this team, every one can pass the ball. It's reallly different to the regular definition in each position.
I'm glad we have a POWER GUARD and a POINT CENTER right now! :cool:

No, as a matter of fact he DIDN'T take all of Cisco's minutes and he's not going to.

They are both going to get minutes. BOTH OF THEM. #23 AND #32.

How long is it going to take for people to realize they both have something to contribute and there is a really good reason Petrie selected both of them.

When interviewed after the game, Kevin was asked about who should get more playing time.

"It's NOT Kevin vs. Cisco," he said. "It's about Kevin AND Cisco doing everything they can to help their team win."

Kevin gets it...

Actually, I think it'll go back to how it was before Garcia got hurt when Peja is back - Garcia backing up Peja and SK backing up Bonzi. Unless we add a swingman to help spark/scoring punch/depth, which I wouldn't mind seeing at all. ;)

Well I would love to see Kevin and Cisco on the court together more often because when they've played together they looked to be getting some 2 man game going on, but the reality is, once Peja returns it's one or the other. Matchups will probably play a part.
Once Peja gets back we could very easily see:

Bibby, Kevin, Cisco, KT and Miller on the court

OR

Bibby, Kevin, Cisco, Reef and Miller on the court

Our problem isn't at the 2/3. Our REAL problem is in finding someone competent to relieve Bibby. Of course, we might even see:

Cisco, Kevin, Bonzi, Reef and Miller on the court

OR

Cisco, Kevin, Peja, Reef and Miller on the court

There are a myriad of possibilities. Having THREE players with athleticism really opens up the variety of choices...

And, as you've indicated, it might change fairly often, depending on the match-ups.

(I didn't include all the possibilities and I showed Miller out there because I think the true key is not to have too many bench players on the court at the same time. If they're going to spell Miller, I don't think they should do it with Bibby and Peja off the court, for example.)
