Well at least he did sit Jack and Turiaf,but for some reason he has not sat Maggette yet and I am not sure, is it because Azibuike is hurt? does anyone know?

Death to Homers attacking fans who finally get it.

It could be an off season strategy.

Sit Crawford on the bench, that will prevent him from getting his rhythm which may affect his value because he is free agent after this season.

If he opts out, then we gain room for money to get a player we like.

If the plans pans out on surface, then CJWatson, Marco Belinelli, Morrow will be the beneficiary which is not bad.

But Crawford has to be the most affected, especially if he wants to max out his value for the next season, which the Warriors countered by benching him.

Nellie may be a bit inconsistent as a coach but he damn sure knows working the money as a GM on the sidelines.

We sat Crawford so we could play CJ 40+ minutes?!? We know what CJ is already. A 8th/9th man who can’t play defense. He’s a FA at the end of the year & probably won’t be back. Why’s he getting time over Marco who we have more invested in? Is it possible to trade a head coach?

Sitting a guy out doesn’t affect his stats. Playing a guy 10 minutes does. Maybe it’s actually better for Crawford. In any event, I don’t care. If it makes Crawford opt out and go away it would be Nellie’s best move of the season. Frankly, I’d sit Crawford, Jax and Maggette and just work the rest of the team for the rest of the season.

Great job on tonights game Nellie!

Wondering in all honesty what message Nellie and Co. are sending to Crawford by benching him tonight? Really!

Way to go Jax! Nice pass at the end of the game we really got a good shot off! How many minutes did he rack up AGAIN?

How many more games till the end of this season?

Marcus,

Sit Jackson down. Love the guy but WTF is up with the turnover. Carried us to a close game but in the end, caused us the damn game again.

I would sit Jack down or push him to the 3 position and take the damn ball out of his hands.

Thanks for the email about your new editor and the banner. This guy is either a miser or just clueless on basketball.

I think it is a bunch of BS!!! Don Nelson has to be the dumbest coach in America. OK, I have been saying all season that the youngta’s need some pt. But to come out and say that JC is not gonna play at all? And to say he cant sit Cap’n Jack because we are thin at the 3? I dont know who is more drunk on the job, Nellie or Charles Barkley. I am starting to feel like the late 90′s and early to mid 00′s when I love the W’s, but hate to watch them. Nellie has got to go… And by the way MT…
TAKE THAT DAMN AL HARRINGTON POSTER OFF THA PAGE!!!
