How much longer can Clifford keep Neal on the bench?

Yeah, as much as I'd like to think his production would be the same as a starter, it wouldn't. We thought he'd be going off last season when he got his chance as a starter with Hendo out and he didn't. He's best suited as a sixth man. Some guys are just wired for it but can't do the same when given the role as a starter. It's like they become too selective with their shots as starters where when they come off the bench they're just ready to take it whenever the opportunity presents itself.

I would, however, like to see Neal get a crack at some of the end of the game shots. We went to Kemba the first three games when the game was on the line. He's 2-4. Cliff needs to mix it up a little.

We can complain about kembas field goal percentage and shot selection for days but if you go back and watch his buzzer beaters run out of the half court there's no doubt in my mind the play call every time is for kemba to run around and try to get space to get a shot up. I suspect that's been called on many other occasions as well.

I don't mind the call - but is that the ONLY final shot call we have?

Right now imo, the best lineup has neal in it. I understand the points/energy off the bench, but neal is playing like one of top five players.

Someone needs to start a thread and list your starting five.

Pg- roberts = he runs the O better right now

Sg- neal = 3s, energy, D, O etc.

Sf- lance= he's struggling to find his way. Just take him over the other options

Pf- marvin= this is much closer given the last two game by zeller.

C- big al= nothing needs to be said here.
