I like AB, but we were a desperation 3 away from his effort on Luka being an entirely different narrative. |

Well, this game we were def. not even close to that situation so i'd say we needed him out there quite a bit. Unless KCP is absolutely on fire, AB makes much more impact when considering both sides of the ball imo.
I get what you're saying though if you mean there was much more to it then just that simple swap and I agree. |

Avery Bradley, who had a hairline fracture in his leg, was re-evaluated today and cleared for full contact. He's still out for tomorrow's game, but if all goes well over the next few days could be probable for Wednesday's game in Orlando. |

Avery, Caruso and Green all have to play regularly imo. Rondo is going to get his minutes. KCP has played great since he entered the starting lineup. I hope he doesn't get lost in the shuffle. |

I hope they keep KCP as a starter, but I would give him the quick hook (for AB) if he is failing defensively or offensively! _________________ “Always remember... Rumors are carried by haters, spread by fools, and accepted by idiots.” |

Great news. It feels like the perimeter defense has slipped a bit since he's been gone. Luckily we have a DPOY candidate keeping the fort on lockdown. AB is an important piece on this team. Glad he'll be back soon. |

It's good timing, too, since I feel like Rondo might be out for a bit with that hamstring. _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."

If both Avery and Rondo are healthy, I don't see any minutes at all for Cook/Daniels. Our bench lineup will basically consist of: Rondo-Caruso-KCP-Kuzma-Dwight |

Injuries tend to happen, but at full strength Cook and Daniels become your 3 point specialists off the bench imo.
That should be their roles. Some shooting quick offense off the bench. |

Absolutely! Either of those you don't really want playing consistent big minutes but they are also capable at any time to come in and completely change the momentum of the game if our offense isn't clicking or like you said injuries as well.
Those two guys are pretty great end of the bench weapons to have in todays NBA. |

Avery Bradley worked out again today with Lakers in Orlando and will play against the Magic Wednesday, per source. He will be on about a 20 minutes restriction. Bradley had been out with a hairline fracture in his lower right leg. |
Good to hear. |
