What's new

Corbin Rotations

Hayward played well guarding an allstar 2 / SG last night.

I need a breakdown. All I saw was Hayward getting lost in screens and Pierce shooting over him at will.

Bench Bell and CJ.

That's not enough. Buy them both out and release them. Tell Hayward the spot is his but he hasn't earned it yet. Threaten him to either improve or look to be replaced in the summer. He's the type that this will light a fire under rather than push him the other way.
 
Favors and Big Al > Sap and Big Al. With Sap coming off the bench that gives up that spark we need, and it makes the starting line up
more balanced.

Favors would have Al's back. Fesenko/Elson could cover Millsap's back on the second team. would seem to make perfect sense. does corbin have the guts to make millsap the 6th man?
 
Saying is one thing, doing is another. As Tater mentioned, what was his reasoning for that lineup?

Maybe KOC told him we need a late lottery pick in order to make a trade this off-season.
Hopefully with the new contract, Corbin doesn't feel any pressure to "win now" and can give more minutes to Favors and Hayward - perhaps even Evans.

Detroit was playing Stuckey/Bynum backcourt most of the game. We were getting burned repeated by both guards and Corbin tried to match speed with speed.

As many have said already, and why we're beating a dead horse and criticizing a brand new head coach is beyond me and tiresome, he let the tail wag the dog. He should've forced the Pistons into a bigger lineup. Seriously, get the **** over it.
 
It's hard to blame Corbin for playing CJ "The Chuck" Miles, Smell-the-Broken-Bell, and All-Hustle no Skill Price. Blame the FO for leaving him with those 3.
