reward senior leadership



Reward the guy who has gotten in more fistfights than produced quality games?

Unless he is suspended or injured, he'll play a significant role.



If he does, we aren't going to be good. Granger isn't good. If he plays, we have some serious busts

He plays the 3/5 position. Where else would he play? The point? Center?



What? Granger is a terrible center since he is considerably undersized. Granger is not nearly athletic enough to play as a wing (3/SF) . 

So that leaves Granger at PF, which he still isn't good at. We have Spencer, Harris and Purifoy that all should be upgrades over Gran

Granger has big game experience, which half our roster is without. You can't teach experience. That is why he will play early and often. Bruce has entrusted him to be one of our leaders and contribute, or he wouldn't still be on the team. We have talented newcomers but the lack of experience is why they will be gradually worked into the lineup, not because they are busts but young. Also, I played in a similar system as ours and the 4 is our center, who basically runs from paint to paint. 3 is a wing. 5 will play on the arc and in the paint. The 5 also inbounds the ball and is the on ball defender in our full court press.
