those are HEAVY minutes

those are HEAVY minutes

I think Thibs' rotations (sometimes forced if he has no choice) and the heavy minutes are the only thing that will keep this team from succeeding in the post-season. Health, not talent, is the only limiting factor.

[Shammyguy3]

Completely agree. I really want Deng's minutes cut down, and especially Noah. Rip, while I love him, I think holds his greatest value being dealt elsewhere for a backup center.

Rose (30) Hinrich (15) Robinson (3)
Belinelli (26) Butler (14) Robinson (8)
Deng (36) Butler (12)
Boozer (30) Gibson (18)
Noah (35) backup (13)

Jimmy totals 26
Nate totals 11

that's what I hope to see come playoff time.

I'd like that.

I have a feeling about this year, man. Don't know why. I just see everyone on the team scoring and stepping up in Rose's absence. Everyone knows how to carry the load without him, so knowing what Rose's return will provide... I just have a good feeling. Boozer stepping up, Deng scoring more, Noah scoring more, and the emergence of Marco and Jimmy makes us that much deadlier when Rose comes back.

[CubbyBlue2009]

In the playoffs, if we have a lead we can send out a lineup of:

Rose/Jimmy/Deng/Taj/Noah

Oh baby. Then Rose doesn't have to guard Wade and can conserve energy for the offensive side of the ball.

My line-up in my sig to seal games... Nate until Rose returns... DEFENSE OWNS ALL
