who else is suppose to play? Pek and Turiaf are both out

Fantastic job by Rick not rewarding him for his great play by leaving him out in crunch time

What we need is a guy on our bench who can go off for 26 and 11.

He's been going with Love and Cunningham at the 4 and 5 for significant minutes since Turiaf went down. I would have thought he would have done that again. Don't get me wrong...I'm happy to see Dieng get some minutes. It's just that Rick surprises me.

The Barea / Cunningham combo shooting a combined 2 from 13. Makes Robbie Hummel look like our 6th man.

even if you know he's going to take the next 10 games off? Williams will always be a tease at best.

I'm not going to jump to conclusion based off one start, but has Dieng's performance made Pek even more expendable?

I can't speak of what he's doing when he's not playing us because I don't watch it. But he sure looks better than LRMAM to me.

I think so, Matt. Rubio is always going to get easy buckets for whoever his center is, and Dieng significantly changes our defensive performance. I love Pek, but if we're looking for assets that can bring a significant return, we should at least be open to offers for Pek.
