Let the Jeff Withey Era Begin!

Fair enough. DL should probably just trade Withey for a second round pick or something so the other bigs can get adequate playing time. He could also just waive him, I guess.

Nah. I like withey. I think he will be a good backup to Rudy for us.

I agree. I think at the end of the season Booker will be the one on his way out. I think they will end up taking Lyles over Booker and make Withey the back up C. How much court time Withey sees is certainly up in the air though.

Don't think there's any question Lyles will be the backup PF and Booker won't be offered a contract. Booker has regressed in a contract year. That's not good.
 
Even with a Healthy Gobert and Favors would like to see Withey get at least 15 minutes (all backup C minutes), want to reduce wear and tear on Rudy keep Rudy around 30-32 minutes, we've got an ideal backup C where we lose little when Rudy sits

There is a severe drop off from Gobert to Withey. Having said that I am not worried when Withey steps on the court. So him getting up to 15 mpg would not bother me.
 
Withey has one real talent that compares favorably with Favors and that is protecting the rim, not quite as good as Gobert. Booker and Lyles are almost non-factors in rim protection. He should get minutes, especially when Rudy comes back ... I think we should limit Rudy's minutes in the beginning.

We should probably cross our fingers, and hope at least one player is injured all season. Withey needs time to develop, and coaches aren't capable of dealing with too much talent.

Quins system is position less basketball. Whithey is taking valuable pt away from are developing wings. We do not need another big we need wings. We always needed a wing we have never developed one.
 
Why is not Withey shooting the three? This is disappointing. I read a article on Granyland (rip) once which says even at like 31-32 % a big shooting 3 is efficient offense because the spread the floor factorial. Anyone can shoot 30 per cent three so why not Whithey? He has a good stroke.
