Ariza just dribbles standing nearly straight up.....and the ball has a long way to go, he needs to hunch way over...to protect the ball.

I know Morey said they got him locked up at a young age of 24, but he is right now about his career averages...and honestly other than his steals....which is not because of good defensive positioning, but rather very long arms....he has been a major dissappointment.

I honestly believe if you replaced Trevor with Von, or Chase, the team would be better off......

If we can see a great improvement in the chuck wagon over the years, I know the improvement that Ariza can make is potentially huge.

Yes Deckard I do....clearly my first choice would be Chase, but I think if you took Ariza out of the lineup and replaced him with a healthy Von, the team would be better off overall, yes.

Point is Wafer is injury prone these days why risk it and why Hurt Arizas Future plans and bring his confidence more down? FAILED

The problem with our slow 3rd quarter starts is that teams make adjustments to our starting lineups and realize that we only have 2 scorers on the floor out of five. Anyone can score on this team From Brooks to Hayes if theres ball movement.

If you put Von or Chase in there instead of Trevor, the team gets a lot better on offense.

Defense wins championships why have another scorer and take Brooks shots and Scolandrys shots away??

Now defensively, we are weaker with Von, but because most NBA teams do not have two quality offensive wings, you can put Von on the worst Wing and his efficient offense more than makes up for it.

We wont see the worst wings come playoff time. Remember come playoff time most of the times it becomes a half court game and the defense locks up more. Your going to want Ariza in your team come playoff time.

I prefer a flexible team with many different options, and right now Battriza is just redundant, and honestly it doesn't help that much....if we had an offensive wing in place of Trevor I think this team would be better.

Ra and DM Believe Chase Bud is that wing.

Also, you have to factor in the contracts, Trevor is getting paid $6+ million and you could get his production, or rather BETTER production from players paid around $1 million.

Why Gamble and sign scrubs and see if they can fit our team chemistry?

Just my .02

It's not a slump in my opinion. He just isn't as good as the role he's taking on
