I agree, Knight.  I'm not bashing Dirty.  I'm trying to be realistic.  CJ is a born scorer, and that's what this team needs.  Dirty was outplayed by CJ all last season.  CJ was a better defender and a better rebounder, at least from what I can remember.  CJ has a very nice jump shot and hit a few threes last season.  If he can add that shot to his game, there isn't a team that can defend him.  He becomes our Jeremy Lamb.  The starters will probably shake out as:

Scoop
Triche
KJo
Fab
CJ

with Dion and Keita being the first off the bench.

Then there's the log jam:

Dirty
Christmas
Carter-Williams
Cooney
Mookie

Whichever of those other guys plays the best is going to see the court.  If they are all worthy (which could very well happen) I see JB using them each in specific situations and not relying on one or two all the time.

What helps James the most is the fact we are guard heavy.  Foul trouble on CJ or KJo will be good for him...but not if he can't rebound or play D.
