playing favorites too much

["gil moreno" <kuya_g@hotmail.com>]

I do not understand what Rick Pitino is up to.  Walker misses his first 
11 shots enroute to scoring just 6 points, and yet he see's 43 minutes 
of action.  Same story for Pierce except he didn't exactly miss 11 
straight.  He still missed a lot.  These two "stars" did not deserve to 
play that many minutes.  They did more harm than good so why not give 
the others a chance to touch the ball.  If there was anyone who deserved 
to play 40+ minutes it was Tony Battie.  10 pts., 11 boards, 7 blocks.  
I would start him the next time out.  VP deserved more touches.  As one 
of the earlier posts stated, no one on the Bulls roster could have 
handled him in the paint.  Greg Minor (although I'm not really fond of 
his game) deserved to get more minutes since Walker and Pierce could not 
get the job done. I could go on and on but what use will it be.  I say 
bench Walker!  Make him realize that he is expendible, just like the 
other mortals on the team.  Pierce should be given more time to 
recuperate from the injury.  Let Mercer and Anderson carry the load for 
awhile.  This will surely boost their confidence.  So what if we lose 
again.  At least we tried something different for a change.  Let's 
forget about the play-offs and focus on trying to win, one game at a 
time.
