The Voice Of The Killjoy: Boykins Gone, Ainge Fiddling, Scalabrine Starts, Powe Showcased

[douglas342 at aol.com]

Sorry, I don't get this "showcased" thing.  We must be trying to trade 
Rondo, Pierce, Perk, Allen, Garnett and everyone else except Pruitt.   
And even if Powe IS being "showcased," why not wait to see what we get 
for him?  I sure didn't like losing Delonte and Big Al, but those sort 
of worked out OK.

I will admit, though, that I don't get the minutes being given to 
Davis, Powe, and Scalabrine.  Davis especially seems to shoot up and 
down the depth chart like a rocket on crystal meth.  And why DOES 
Scalabrine get so much time of late?  Yeah, he's consistent, if 
0-0-0-0-0 is consistent.  Does no one ask Doc these questions?  He may 
have a reasonable answer, and it is true that the team is doing OK.  
Maybe he knows what he's doing and hasn't explained it to the masses 
very well.

I love Leon Powe. He forced Nowitzki to make some
  tough shots, he made the shots but nothing came without
  being leaned on,elbowed, smacked or pushed by Leon.
  When he picked up his sixth foul I found myself saying
  , oh shit! who is going to guard Dirk,but Posey did
   a respectable job. I can't help but think that the reason
   Rondo was able to get that board from him and why Dirk
   wasn't able to finish in the end, had something to do with
  the way Powe leaned on him all night.Maybe thats a stetch but
  I found myself fist pumping and screaming Powe's name alot
  last night.Maybe I shouldn't get attached if he is being showcased.
  Can anyone tell
  me why Davis either gets signifigant minutes or none at all?

   sssshhhhhhh, Scalabrine is a favorite among some here. There's a pool 
to see
how long he can go without a rebound or point. He's a Legend. Ask Tommy.
