I want February AB back  :( ...He has to have some sort of injury, cuz his defense is starting to slip some too.

#1 reason shav should be in instead of bass...we have PLENTY of shooters out there....no rebounders....

Bass has been playing very well lately
Bass is a better post defender than Shav
Bass is a better pick and roll player
Bass is a better perimeter defender can switch and guard 3s
Bass is a better shooter
Bass is a better post player
Bass is the superior player to Shav in almost every single way except rebounding.

****
nice effort...too bad you are wrong...Bass has a good game every now and then....but too few for his minutes....way too few......no rebounds and a LOT of taken shots.....slim effort when he CAN play......shav blocks many more shots on ALL..and has played much less.....but you and doc love bass.....i see his talent....but he doesn't bring it much, not as much as he can.....he cost us that game vs miami when he could have easily dunked...instead a lazy lay attempt, then miami won by THAT 2.....typical....he has good games.....but he could be consistant....

Bass is no superstar, but to think Shav is suddenly the answer, you are a bit over the top. Shav had a great game against Atlanta, and may well make a difference tonight, but really? you want to insert him into the lineup like he is the key man? Bass is not playing badly tonight and I don't even like Bass. If we can get a decent game out of Bass and have Shav come in off the bench, things will be much better than the other way around.

Shav time. Let's rebound.

so when Bradley sucks, he must have some sort of injury, and when Green struggled, he was just called horrible and weak-minded  ::)

I agree AB has been off his game.    probably something nagging him

well, his reply was too pointed....i like shav....sure, different....play him...well of course i would...i always play the hot player....they try harder when they know someone else wants their minutes.....we need rebounds...it hurts the other team....what bass does...all the guys can do...his outside shot..somewhat consistant...so what.anyone can do that..we need a rebounder/shot blocker....it changes everything more than a guy who shoots a 10 footer does. Bass has great skills, he just doesn't try hard all the time.

Well Shav has been awful so far, so maybe Doc is wiser than us when it comes to making his lineups.

One thing that isn't mentioned about Crawford much - his court vision is much better than I expected.  He's actually a good and willing passer.  I thought he was a black hole.

Shav working hard, looks nervous. Hard to rebound when it's 1 on 4.

besides, directly comparing bass and shav....how can we.....bass has been here for 2 years...playing a LOT...gets FIRST look passes, expected to shoot....shav has  been here 2 months...maybe.....gets little looks, little passes.....so actually that makes shav look better....he made his own spot. no one SET HIM up....he went and got the ball.

there is literally no way we beat the Knicks without KG... they're just too good offensively to afford missing our defensive leader!
