Gibson Vs. Hughes
Alright, I'm tired of us starting, sloppy, counter productive Larry Hughes of Daniel Gibson. Boobie can shoot, and will.
Really, it's kind of pointless. Sure you have the 6th man, but that should be Varajeo.
Hughes is an ok 7th man in my opinion. What do you think?

Gibson provides more consistent scoring than Andy does.
I like bringing Gibson off the bench. It isn't really all that important who starts, it's who gets the most minutes and who finishes in close games, and that will almost always be Gibson unless Larry has a hot hand.
I personally like :
PG- Hughes
SG- Sasha
SF- Lebron
PF- Gooden
C- Z
However, I think our main lineup in crunch time should be:
PG: Gibson
SG: Hughes
SF: Lebron
PF: Gooden
C: Varejao
I don't understand why we don't play Varejao and Gooden together more. I think they play well together. Z is a clutch shooter, but he's lumbering defensively. It isn't like Gooden can't hit those same jumpers that Z hits. I love Z and what he brings to the team, but I don't think he fits with what we should be doing down the stretch.

Until Pavs picks up his game to the way he was playing last spring I'd go with Gibson at PG and Hughes at SG. It would be nice if Mike Brown would limit Hughes to 5 missed shots a game. Like fouling out but with misses. Gibson really needs to be shooting at least 8-15 3s a game. I'm tired of 3-4 nights. If you are that hot shoot more.

The thing with Gibson right now is that he's at his best in the flow of the offense, such as when we rotate the ball to him or Lebron kicks it to him from across court or after dribble penetration. He really isn't that good off the dribble, or in any situation in which he has to create his own offense. When he's put in a position when he does have to create his own offense, he usually ends up driving and going for the floater.
That's why I think it would be hard to get him that many threes a game. Though we should be running more offensive sets with the goal of getting Booby more shots in the flow of the offense.

It's funny how Gilbert Arenas complains that the Cavs don't use Lawrence right. How much better can you set up a guy than Lebron does for Hughes?
The guy simply cannot make an open jumper. In the League, that's unacceptable.

Exactly. If there is a worse shooter under 6'10 in the league, i'd like to see him.
