Re: Schintzius/Kenny

I think this is a strategy that should have been used, particularly 
against Orlando.  However, it sort of becomes moot because Mercer will 
be back soon and Bowen won't get very many minutes.

So, what about Mercer taking on this role?  I love Ron's offensive game, 
but I think he needs to add another dimension.  It hurts the Cs that he 
is not a sufficient ball handler to help brng the ball up in pressure 
situations.  Could he make up for this by using his size and quickness 
to relieve Kenny of some of the more difficult defensive matchups in the 
league?

Or, there has been some talk about keeping one of the main scorers as a 
sixth man.  I suppose that would be either Mercer or Pierce, with Bowen 
or Popeye starting in their place.  You could even alternate it so that 
Popeye starts against bigger front lines and Bowen does when there's a 
tough backcourt matchup.  I'd still want Mercer and Pierce to get the 
most minutes, though.
