NBA starters routinely play 30+ minutes per game over an 82-game season, and many of those guys are in their 30s. How could playing 30 MPG over 31 games grind down an 18-year-old? Glynn needs to play a lot more. The entire team benefits when he's on the court. I love Benny's team-first attitude, but his court vision, ball handling, passing and offensive ability are not on Watson's level. 1. Sorry I am late to this party, but I wanted to address the comparison of NBA/college minutes. I have frequently argued that college freshmen must battle fatigue during their first year playing college ball. Its usually a combination of their bodies still developing and acclimating to the new playing environment. If you disagree, look no further than the minute averages for the current flock of NBA rookies. http://espn.go.com/nba/statistics/player/_/stat/scoring-per-game/sort/avgMinutes/position/rookies Only one rookie, Jahlil Okafor is averaging more than 30 minutes a game, and ten (10) are playing more than 20 minutes a game. Of those ten, three, Mudiay, Porzingis, and Bjelica, played internationally prior to coming into the NBA. Watson needs that time to develop, both physically and emotionally, and limiting his minutes is a standard method many coaches use ease the development. Give Watson time to develop. He has grown up a lot in 10 games. I just do not want him to be burned out in February/March. As for Watson starting, I would rather have Watson in the game when it matters most. If that is at the beginning of a game, great. However, I would rather have Watson on the floor at the end of games, especially the close ones. If that means he starts the game on the bench, so be it. The more we see of Watson in there for crunch time now, the better this team will be come tournament time. 2. Discussing the starting lineup, I feel Miles needs to reshuffle a few things. It seems Miles has played Parker, Webster, Watson exclusively at the 1 and 2. There have been a few times I noticed McVeigh and White sliding up to the 2; however, the focus seems to be 3 guys holding down 2 spots. At the 5, Miles lately seems to be focusing upon Hammonds, Jacobson, and, less and less, Morrow. The remaining 3 and 4 spots are left for McVeigh, Shields, White, and Fuller. This strategy limits the development of Morrow (who is getting fewer and fewer minutes). I would like to see Morrow slide to the 4 and White slide to the 2. If this is true then wouldn't the best way to help your freshman stay fit for the end of the game be to space out his minutes. That would mean starting your freshman and giving him breaks in the middle of the game. Even if he's playing the same amount of minutes! If this is true then it does matter who's starting and not just the amount of playing time they get. Right?

uhh.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-point_field_goal I looked it up and even wondered about it but I guess I got bad info. Oops.

I always find it interesting when people say that in the 80s and 90s everyone was so much better at shooting. If they were such amazing shooters then how did Stefen Curry make more 3s in these playoffs than the entire league combined during the 1988 playoffs, the first year the 3 point line existed? The answer is that it was so easy to get a wide open mid range jumper. Of course their percentages were so much higher because mid range shots were contested as much as 3s are today. So instead of taking a higher percentage mid range shot shooters today are forced by the defense to shoot 3s that are harder to make at a high percentage instead. People also always say that athletes have ruined the game because they can't shoot but what if it's the other way around and the athletes can play better defense which doesn't allow for as easy shots to be taken. It's probably a combination of both but I think that a Golden State team would spread out teams of the past well enough to at least compete with them.
