...reality vs. hope...the second half with Triche, Waiters, CJ, Melo and KJ was very good tonight...note that in a couple of other earlier games many of us mentioned Triche and Waiters are the better back court...and Waiters and Triche pass to each other and both are better shooters than Scoop.  In some ways I feel badly for Scoop...but he will rebound and sure that in other games he will do just fine...but I believe the best 5 were on the floor for almost all of the 2nd half...Triche, Waiters, CJ, KJ and Melo....whew...almost didnt win that game...12 points is closer than I thought it would be...though the betting line was 'Cuse by 9...
The bench will get in and contribute, but JB was not about to let this game get away and he went with those he trusted...If you look at the stats he made good decisions:

KJ:            20 and 10 with 5 of 5 FT and 2 ass and 2stl
Triche:       18 and 5 assts with 4 of 6 from 3 pt range and 2 boards and 2 TO-2stl
Waiters:     11 and 4 assts and 2 TO-2stl
CJ:             12 and 9
Melo:          6 and 4 with 5 blocks
Scoop:        2 and 3 assts and no TOs
Keita:          0 and 1 and 2stls
Other than these guys...not much...I am surprised.
