    This guy brings so much more to the table than Rasho it's not funny.

    Make the move Pop.

    Why is everyone so consumed with the guy starting, as long as he gets minutes I am happy....

    Doesn't make a difference if he starts or not. I would, however, give every one of Horry's minutes to him. As I pointed out in another thread, there are 96 game minutes available at the 4 and 5 spots. Split em up between Tim, Nazr and Rasho. Maybe Tim with 35, Nazr with 33 and Rasho with 28.

    Because he should be playing alongside Tim Duncan..........this is not hard to figure out.

    Because he's better than the starter we have.

    I concur with ex - give him Horry's minutes.

    Oh, and let him finish the game next to Duncan in crunch time.

    He is, and he will be. Again, starting or not doesn't matter. They will pair together just as often. I'm sure Nazr doesn't want to be the one to displace a starter this late in the season. He already has the burden of replacing Malik.

    Nazr gets on the offensive boards better than Rasho.

    If Tim Duncan is that good, wouldn't it be better to bring Nazr in when Tim is out, I mean would you rather have Rasho out there by himself, or Nazr?

    The way it works out one of these two has to play minutes with Tim and one without, shouldn't the better player get those without Tim minutes?

    I agree with exstatic, I don't care if he starts or not but I hope he can get a lot of Robert and Tony's minutes, unless Pop goes to a specific matchup which should only happen from time to time....

    Interestingly enough, at the half Rasho has played 8 minutes, Nazr 9.

    I think those of us in the start Nazr camp may be getting our wish sooner than later.

    burdens of replacing whoever, this guy can play.

    Yeah he can play, so let him play and don't worry about it, he didn't start but he has more minutes than Rasho so why does it matter if he starts or not?

    It depends on how Rasho reacts coming off the bench. If Nazr is the superior player, it's worth a try.

    I've laid it out several times in the last several days PM5K -

    Nazr's game (offensive rebounds, junk buckets, interior passing) is a better compliment to Tim's game than Rasho's.

    And also, Rasho plays better when he's not sharing the lane with Duncan on offense.

    I could go on and on. There's about a million reasons to put Nazr next to Tim, about the only reason not to is that the Rose camp will be forced to bury their hate even sooner than they thought.

    Actually it's 10 mins for Nazr and 12 mins for Rasho, at the half.

    I want to see them against something a bit tougher than Brown/Vroman before I make any grand pronouncements, but Nazr's doing fine.

    Um.. little girl, don't get your rosey thong in a bunch.

    I simply corrected your numbers, with no at ude, no sub motive. Why you snapped like a bench after Michael Moore sits on it, is beyond me?

    Must be that time o' the month.

    And yeah, I'll get on that highway right away you clever as ever bas !

    Yeeha!

    I don't think Pop will do any further mucking with chemistry. Rasho just finished a sequence with two blocks and an almost steal. He's a shot blocker, and a pretty damn good offensive rebounder in his own right, although (smartly) he usually kicks it back out.

    I am very, very glad it looks like we don't have to overplay Horry in the stretch.

    IMO a lot of his fouls are from him still not quite knowing where he needs to be all the time in our sets.

    That'll come with PT. Lemme guess PM5K, you still want Rose back?

    I agree, time to start Nazr and get him about 28 minutes consistently.

    Rasho will be just fine as the first big off the bench replacing Duncan.

    In fact, Rasho will probobly score more than he does now.

    Itll work out fine.


    I think Nazr has to get worked into the sets more and more before pop starts him.

    BUT, Nazr will, be getting the minutes down the stretch no question.

    It's certainly possible, and that's exactly why you shouldn't be in a rush to move him into the starting lineup, minutes are minutes.

    And no I don't want Rose back, I love the trade. I was tired of seeing forwards play the backup center position, and getting out rebounded by real centers...
