I think Gray, Malone, Bridgewater, and Epps are capable of giving us some decent bench minutes. But this starting 5 must stay, and they need to be in the game as much as possible.

re: What did yall think of the new lineup? (Posted on 2/7/15 at 8:56 pm to KG5989) As much as I hate to say it, Gray needs to sit more. Patterson and Quarterman play better, and more under control.


while true they cannot all play the whole game

JJ has to figure out how to rotate Gray, malone and one other guy - or we are not going to improve

Bridgewater should have stuck with FB. His upside is not much above his present skill level.

Bridge isn't going to be used agaisnt Uk. Or he shouldn't the guy has no chance. Might see Elbert and epps Tuesday.

Man, I'd love to see Gaethers in our lineup against those CATS. Talk about no fear.

Thanks Trent.

Gray=undisciplined/uncontrolled sloppy play- Probably the most disturbing thing is it took this long for JJ to make the change.

Patterson is solid. Great lineup. Malone needs to sit more though. He is awful all around. Odo or Robertson have to be able to help as good or better than Malone.

Malone does alot of off the ball stuff that the others dont do. His hands may be stone but hes rarely not in position on defense.

Patterson makes better decisions with the ball

been saying this since the 3rd or 4th game of the season.... Gray plays too much hero ball out there.... it's BEEN time for him to get splinters in his arse...

Much more efficient and Patterson is just better than Grey. He may not be as quick or flashy, but he's a shooter and Grey is not...not at this level he's not.

It's not hero ball, Grey just drives without purpose. He has no idea if he wants to score or dish when he gets into the paint. He's having a massive identity crisis right now. I feel bad for him cause he's a much better player then he's shown.

I agree. I think he's lost some confidence and that is compromising him working through his other issues

The line-up shift may appease everyone but the fact is that we will still need Grey and Patterson to improve in order to have a successful year.

Coach needs to figure out how to incorporate Epps and bridgewater too. There are opportunities to get this done and we must take em

Gray needs to get his confidence back. He looks like he is struggling with himself put there.

Besides getting grey out of the lineup I like not having Malone, Mickey, & Martin on the floor together. Malone can provide adequate minutes to give each of the m&m boys a quick rest, but the 3 together was not a good lineup offensively or defensively. Would like to see more of Epps he had some nice moments. Bridgewater just seems too undersized to be effective in league play though.
