In a world where Shabazz rightfully got Prince's minutes and starting spot

Would we be undefeated?

Tough to speculate, but here's how I see it. I think we still beat Denver and lose to Portland and Miami, but I'm afraid we lose to LA if Bazz starts over Prince. I love Bazz, but I love him in the role he is in...instant offense off the bench. Bit despite a lot of effort on the defensive end, he just hasn't grasped yet some of the nuances of team defense that are so vital in the NBA. Prince's defense was a big contributor in our quick start in that game (we were up 11-6 when he was subbed out, I think) and without that good start, I'm concerned that the emotions of the weekend might have been difficult to overcome.

I'm going 1-3.

I would only say that unless you're in the final couple minutes of the game being up by 5 in basketball is essentially tied. If you're in the first half of the first quarter you may even be behind! :thumb:

I don't buy the premise of this thread. Bazz is getting all the time he deserves. He'll have to earn more minutes. I'd rather Dieng or Bjelica get more minutes before Bazz does.

Bazz had kind of a tough night tonight but I thought he played alright. I wasn't sure about Prince being in there at times but then he would make a solid play. Bazz is like a lot of the other young guys he makes plays but also screws up at times. That block Prince had on McBuckets late in the game was pretty sweet. I think Bazz will work his way into more minutes at the expense of Prince as time goes on this season.
