Where's Barea? He should get at least 25 minutes.
Here's mine:
C: Haywood - 33 minutes, Dampier 15
PF: Dirk - 41 minutes, Marion 7

Terry - 28
Beaubois - 18
Dampier - 15
Where's Barea? He should get at least 25 minutes.
Barea is the Iron Man - he should play all 48.
John Wall 35, Greivis Vazques 15

What a dumbass.
Los Mavs
Kidd-30, JJ-18
Butler-10, JJ- 20, Terry-18
Marion-10, Terry- 20, Butler- 18
Dirk- 30, El Rayo- 28
Haywood- 25, El Rayo- 23.
Is what I'm rolling with.
No I didn't forget about Dampier
The one glaring hole I see right now is that there's not enough veteran savvy on the Mavericks. We're looking to swing a deal for Jerry Stackhouse via a loophole in the NBA trade deadline rules, just as long as Jerry keeps his mouth shut this time. I also plan to do the same thing to get back Devean George and his championship experience.
Dampier-28, Haywood-20
Dirk-30, Najera-18
George-30, Butler-18
Stackhouse-32, Butler-16
Kidd-30, Barea-18
Unfortunately Shawn Marion will have to ride the pine. He may do things like hustle, play defense, rebound, and some cleanup scoring, but he doesn't have the veteran presence of a George or Stackhouse. He also has a really ugly shot, and honestly if a guy is going to brick all of their wide open 3 pointers, I'd rather he do it with the textbook form of a Devean George.
Giving Collins more minutes than Frye is crrrrrazy.
PG - Nash 34 Dragic 14
SG - JRich 34 Barbosa 10 Dragic 4
SF - Hill 28 Dudley 20
PF - Amare 40 Amundson 8
C - Lopez 26 Frye 20 Amundson 2
Collins should only get PT if Lopez is in foul trouble and we need a solid defensive big. Clark shouldn't get any PT at all unless both Hill and Dudley are in foul trouble.
I'm willing to give Dragic more than 18 minutes if the bench is playing good D, or if Nash is a turnover machine. These minutes are based on the assumption that all of these players will play up to expectation. If Goran exceeds expectation, he gets more minutes, at the 1 and 2.
Amare should be playing 40 minutes a night. He seems to play best alongside Lopez, but I'd like to see him share the frontcourt with Amundson, too.
This topic should be fun. Thats a lot of minutes for Haywood too, isnt it?
Anyway.
C: Gasol - 32 minutes, Bynum - 16 minutes
PF: Odom - 40 minutes, Gasol - 8 minutes
SF: Artest - 36 minutes, Walton - 7 minutes, Bryant - 5 minutes
SG: Bryant - 35 minutes, Brown - 8 minutes, Vujacic - 5 minutes
PG: Farmar - 24 minutes, Brown 16 minutes, Vujacic - 7 minutes 59 seconds, Fisher - 1 second
Fisher should only play the last two minutes of a game.
Id probably give Butler a couple more minutes, but I like this rotation.
Also its a given that Roddys minutes should go up and down based on whether he is hot or not, but there is a very small chance he will get 18 a game obviously.
@ Najera's 51 minutes.
He can have 2 minutes. If its a blowout.
Let him get DJ Mbenga and Josh Powell in foul trouble.
Fisher should only be in there for last 2 minutes of 4th qtr
C - McDyess - 28, Duncan - 15, Bonner - 5
PF - Duncan - 23, McDyess - 7, Blair - 10, Bonner - 8
SF - Jefferson - 35, Manu - 5, Bogans - 5, Hairston - 3
SG - Manu - 30, Hill - 10, Mason - 8
PG - Parker - 25, Hill - 20, Manu - 3
Manu's minutes are a bit high, but it's the playoffs. Parkers minutes could go up or down depending on how he looks first few games back.
PG Kidd 36 minutes/Terry 12 minutes
SG Beaubois 30 minutes/Terry 18 minutes
SF Marion 20 minutes/Butler 28 minutes
PF Nowitzki 38 minutes (or some of those minutes at C)/Marion 10 minutes
C Haywood 32 minutes/Dampier, Najera, and Dirk based on matchups for 16 minutes.
PG - Manu
SG - Manu
SF - Manu
PF - Manu
C - Manu
Coach: Manu
Why is Clark in yours?
My thing is, you don't stick a rookie on the floor in the playoffs, when he's seen very little PT throughout the regular season. He needs to get his feet wet during the year before he gets an opportunity in the postseason. Barbosa is a proven choker, you're right, but mainly just against the Spurs. With Dragic playing backup point, and JRich logging most of the SG minutes, there's no reason to play Barbosa long enough for him to choke the game away.
Mavs choking occasions can all be tracked back to your bad management, you verbose piece of .
C - Collison 26/ D.J White 22
PF - Jeff Green 20/ Collison 12/ D.J White 16
SF - Durant 32/ Jeff Green 16
SG - Harden 30/ Durant 12/ Weaver 6
PG - Westbrook 38/ Harden 10
C- Perkins 48
PF - Garnett 48
SF - Pierce 48
SG - Allen 48
PG - Rondo 48
Mainly cause I don't trust the backups.
I guess if we're going with realistic numbers...
C - Perkins 35, Sheed 8, Shelden 5
PF - Garnett 30, Big Baby 16, Scalabrine 2 (it's just funny to see him in there)
SF - Pierce 40, Marquis 8
PG - R. Allen 34, Finley 10, T. Allen 4
SG - Rondo 38, Nate Robinson 10
I don't trust Sheed much, hence the shared time with Shelden. Trying to keep Garnett's minutes low due to advanced age, and Allen somewhat lessened for the same reason. I haven't seen enough of Finley playing with us to know how he'll perform come playoff time.
And Pierce? Well, I don't think we have a chance unless he A) play significantly well and B) logs alot of minutes. Sadly.
We are not in the playoffs, but...
Brooks 20/Lowry 28
Martin 32/Brooks 12/Budinger 8
Ariza 30/Battier 14/Budinger 4
Scola 36/Hill 8/Hayes 4
Hayes 20/Andersen 20/Hill 8
When you say ideal, do you mean realistic too, right? Ideally, I'd like to see Duncan log 40-42 mpg, like he used to be able to, but realistically I know at this point asking anything more than 36 mpg is probably not realistic. I'd also like to see 38-40 mpg out of Parker, but he won't be in the type of game shape/rhythm that permits him to play that much that soon.
PF: McDyess - 25 mpg, Bonner - 15 mpg, Blair - 8 mpg
SF: Jefferson - 36 mpg, Bogans - 12 mpg
C: Duncan - 36 mpg, Blair - 12 mpg
SG: Ginobili - 34 mpg, Hill - 14 mpg
PG: Parker - 32 mpg, Hill - 16 mpg
This is what I'd like to see, but I don't think Hill will come off the bench. I think Parker will to start, then if the Spurs get in a 2-0 hole, he'll be re-inserted into the starting lineup and Ginobili will be returned to the bench. Also, Bonner will be the third big, ahead of Blair.
I would have liked to see what Hairston and Mahinmi are able to bring but since that didn't happen, I would go with:
Line-up
Hill - from 32 to 40 depending on how he plays
Manu - around 36
RJ - from 30 to 40
Dice - from 20 to 32
Duncan - around 36
Bench
Tony - Around 36
Bonner - from 16 to 28
Blair - from 10 to 25
"End of the game" line-up
Tony
Manu
RJ or Hill (whoever is playing better)
Dice, Bonner or Blair (Idem)
Duncan
