Let's all freak out, because

Starters: Trey Burke, Alec Burks, Gordon Hayward, Jeremy Evans and Derrick Favors"

"Bill Oram
RT @bill_oram: It’s just rest for Jefferson. He’ll likely play tomorrow. Lucas could rest tomorrow. Kanter comes off the bench tonight."

Corbin is an idiot. I love Evans, but definitely NOT over Kanter!!!!!

I actually thought Burks off the bench as 6th man worked really well.

I cannot express how pissed I am that Corbin for even messing around with the idea of not starting Kanter!

Relax man. It is preseason and he is just trying to see how different guys play together. Kanter is in no danger of loosing his spot.
 
Yes, let's tinker with the starting line-up every night. This way we can spend all of November hearing how these guys "still need to learn how to play as a unit".

Exactly, it is just stupid. The lineup the other night worked really well (very balanced), and Burks embraced it.

The only thing I would have changed was less minutes for the 2nd unit, except for Burks and Evans

Why even toy with it if it isn't a possibility?

To me, this is as dumb as dumb gets.

Evans will shine tonight too, since Griffin isn't playing, so that worries me with how his starting performance will be evaluated.

Maybe he wants to see how Evans does against a starting line up. Or how Burks and Evans responds to playing with starters. This is exactly what we want to be seeing right now. Corbin is experimenting and maybe trying things outside the box...just relax. He is probably just evaluating players and combos. This is good.

If Evans start over Kanter when the season hits I will join you. Until then let's try not to freak out one way or the other.

It is preseason and Ty is trying different rotations. Not a big deal unless he does it in the regular season.
 
Yes it is preseason, but eventually the starters need to learn to be the starters as a unit.

Kanter's spot should never be toyed with. He has had so many ****ed up situations in his career already, people just need to unleash him!!!!!
 
I think it's more simple. With Burks out of the second unit, Ty wanted a scorer. So Kanter comes in and will destroy the opposing second unit instead of burks.

Yes, but Burks was happy in 2nd unit being the alpha.

I am all about Evans getting his minutes, but not over Kanter.


I wouldn't be opposed to trying Evans at the 3, especially since I really like Hayward @ the 2 ( and that is where he will play if we draft wiggins or Parker)

Kanter can still play with the rest of the C5 as the 6th man. It really is OK. It is one preseason game.
 
Y'all need to cool it. Cheezus. The probability of Kanter not starting regularly this season is 0%
 
There are 7 preseason games left. As long as they transition into the normal rotations 3 or 4 games out, they'll be as ready as they are going to be.

Ok fair enough. But it is not at the level of freaking out yet.

For you maybe. I've personally seen Kanter's development ****ed with enough. The reason Kanter is still as good as is has nothung to do with being brought about slowly, and everything to do with his insane talent level.

End of rant

Did you hear about Beasley? Punched himself in the head so hard during a Heat game that he needed the trainers attention after the game.
