BT
Dion
CJ
James
Fab

I know we need Scoop and KJ and I don't want to dismiss anything they have done, but I really like the lineup above. I know it's not something we can go with the whole game, but for small bursts, it can be really entertaining.

It seemed only to occur because Scoop was o-for and KJ in foul trouble. Not sure how much we see of it again, but I hope we do.

That lineup fared well, but probably won't see CJ and James together much in the second half again

That group did get it done last night, but as you say, not sure I'd want to see it for long stretches.

A very athletic group for sure, but not sure we're looking for "entertaining" right now. Do you mean Globetrotter "entertaining?" If so, who would throw the bucket of confetti? I'd vote for Triche, just because no one would be expecting it from him. :)

Entertaining isn't the right word I guess. I just like it as a change of pace. Just seems to be a different dynamic. I know it wouldn't work for the long haul, but I like that it's in our arsenal.
 
It's such a luxury to NOT have to worry about foul trouble. Even Melo has been doing a decent job of not getting into trouble (even though the refs are screwing him somtimes); and while BMK is nothing on offense, he's solid in the middle of the zone on D.

Louisville just couldn't do anything when Siva got into foul trouble.

This team is truly Noah's Arc.
 
With Fab on the bench fair and Dion have underachieved.

Although I feel KJO, Triche and Scoop carried us solid for 40 minutes without Fab. Now they only have to do it for 15 minutes.

Good news though to see a lineup even without Scoop and KJO get it done once in a while. Much less pressure :)
 
if james can play like he did last night in the second half our best defensive lineup is with him and CJ on the wings

James needs to re-learn his jump shot. It's been MIA for about 10 games.

I was on the floor a few games ago at the Dome and I noticed some of his shots were almost knuckle balls. Hardly any rotation. Has that always been his shot?
