Message: [QUOTE="kingtidge, post: 5366178, member: 994"] He offers a different look and rim protection, can dunk with barely a hop, and has hands when he gets the ball high. He is a little slow-footed though. It seems Red has obviously used him more since Freeman went down. Not sure why he's seen so little time this year, tho. We really need a more defensive solution at C with Eddie playing very little defense... plus when Eddie was hobbled earlier in the year/out of shape. Not sure naheem is that player, but he certainly could be trialed more. The starting lineup has been so poor at times. I initially thought Red was hoping beyond hope that the starters would just "click" at some point and collective performance would improve, hence why he didn't use McCloud much as he tried to get the starting team as much on-court experience as possible. That said, the substitution patterns have been so erratic at times, it just doesn't look like Red knows what he's doing unfortunately. [/QUOTE]
