When West and Haywood come back...

Of course West is far from perfect. He needs to learn how to pass the ball to Dirk and he should take high % shots only. There is too much A.Iverson in his game for my taste...

It's astonishing how many dumb things you said this weekend, you are on fire. Needless to say, you're wrong. first of all, West started 9 games on the bench this year, on top of that Roddy comes in against starters in first quarter around the 8 minute mark, and again, plays mostly against starters in the beginning of the second half, barely plays in the fourth, when everyone healthy, we also didn't really blew out much team this year, when would he pad his stats?

Also, if those are his padded (?) stats, that's really sad. Again, my argument is not about Roddy being better than West. My question, why would you think he's gonna make a difference for us, when he's just as average as Roddy this year? They're not horrible, but they're pretty average. Our improvement won't come from either, but it certainly won't come from West. If it will happen, it will be a team effort, JET improving, West improving, Roddy improving, Ian getting back to form, Haywood comes back, and producing (that's the most important, actually).
