    Obviously small sample size, but not exactly what the anti-Bev brigade was looking to see I wouldn't think. lol

    actually, if you read the article it pretty much is. All I see are back handed compliments to Beverley, i.e. "weakest link on offense".

    And the thing is, I don't think any sane person or the coaching staff would tell you he's in there for his elite offensive game. I keep seeing people put up these offensive stats comparisons as proof that Bev shouldn't be starting and I just don't get it.

    The article summed it up pretty nicely actually...

    Asking Lin to do this job is just wasting his talents.

    What ESPN doesn't tell you is that the bench (with Asik) is better.

    Somewhat off topic, but does anyone else love Howard's smile?

    You people say you hate Lin fans and the discord around here, but in reality you can't live without them.

    Bench is playing with other bench. It just show we have a better bench. They won't get same stats by playing with other bench. Just saying.
