You're buggin. I will say I don't think Mann has done enough that Coffey shouldn't eat into some of his minutes.

Yeah , I don't think they do. But if he's limited in his role I think he's a really good locker room guy. I think the team has missed the fire everybody up guy since Pat Bev left

Isn’t Amir taller? On top of that the nikka doesn’t hesitate to shoot or put it on the floor when given the opportunity. Half the league needs 3&D guys and he’s been rotting away on the bench

He might be but I think Mann is stronger.
I'm a Mann supporter all the way(pause) and loved the fact that he was held out in the Harden trade where he got a ton of newfound respect and props from people that didn't really know about him. But he can't lose confidence in his shot right now. Not right now. Extremely bad timing for this to go down if it continues. Coffey is hungry and isn't thinking twice about taking the open three. Also BBJ is back in action dying to get a shot as well. We'll see what happens, but it looks like outside of the stars, if someone is falling off and another role player is stepping up, they might get a shot. Lue yanked PJ out of the rotation with a quickness and didn't look back. That alone wouldn't have happened in years past. It finally looks like there's no games being played by the coaching staff this year like playing Mook over RoCo.. finally!

Mann has been letting them fly more over the run vs early in the season. The next time Boston plays good defense will be the first time.

But agree that outside of PG, Kawhi, Harden, and Russ unfortunately (it's been fine) no one should have minutes promised.

Kawhi has to be in the MVP race now. Dude is on fire! Coffey earned his minutes. One thing I'm seeing in this team is toughness and honestly, I've never seen that in this franchise, even in the Lob City era. Lets see how it goes on this road trip, but I'm feelin' real positive about this team. Just need health on our side.:whew:

Anybody else notice Zu is looking a little upper echlon playing with Harden and in general? Better shooting under the basket, rim protecting, rebounding, put backs, defending:whoo:


-On another note, our youth got a little garbage time at the end last night. Even though we traded away most of our draft picks, our cupboards aren't bare at all with Bones, Kobe Brown, Boston, Primo, Miller, Diabate, and even Coffey. Not saying all theses guys will turn into something, and it is a star's league, but the franchise isn't f*cked post 213 Era like casuals think it is.

The big kid Brown has a good looking jump shot and he’s big. He has the potential to be a good defender
