The JC saga is interesting.  While IMO, the TB/Buddy combo has distanced itself from JC for the short term ie this year, next year IMO, JC is more crucial.  Without TB and Frank we need a better JC than what we're seeing right now.

So JB has a slight dilemma on his hands, ride and develop the new TB/Buddy combo to have it gel more, or play JC some first half to help his development and the potential of next year.

To compound the problem Buddy is in developmental mode.  He has made huge strides, I believe by being able to acclimate to the pressure.  He has a pure shooting stroke, it is just being in the new level of pressure/stress it is hard to perform, ie Buddy's bank at Duke.  But Buddy has shown tremendous improvement as his 3pt% is showing.  He still has a ways to go though - one indicator being his underperforming FT%.

It'll be interesting to see it play out.  I'm hoping JB can get enough trust to start giving JC some first half minutes again, and have Buddy get some time throughout the game.
