Question: With CWebb and Dice both struggling, what do you guys think about swapping them in the rotation to see if we can spark one or both of them? (Dice to the starting lineup, Webb off the bench)

Max?

Dyess is playing incredibly, he's just not hitting that 18 footer or dunking his putbacks. No touchey dicey.

Wouldn't starting him get him more time then?

I suppose having a quicker hook on CWebb would have a similar effect.

I don't think swapping them helps. Webber has no chemistry with Delfino/Flip/Hunter. If this was at the start of the season I would consider it because Delfino could really work well with dribble hand offs from Webber. He's a better slasher than RIP is anyway. But they probably haven't worked on it a ton.

Yeah, he's asked not to start, and he's comfy with his 30 minutes. I think web will be a much better fit in the next round against either a softy in moore or a lumbering dope in Z. Too much youth/athleticism seems to be his downfall.

lumbering dope

That was a perfect description. It makes me think that C-Webb is going to be able to take more advantage of his great passing game too, because Ilgauskas is just always so badly out of position, on account of being a lunkhead.

Don't forget nobody plays defense on those teams either besides Eric Snow (he's still on the Cavs, right?) or maybe Jason Kidd. As long as we don't become stagnent we should have a field day on offense compared to the Bulls.

Part of Dice's ritual is not starting. He's superstitious.

Forgot to mention the day Ben Wallace bolted to Chicago I made a secret pact with Satan for a championship this year (you're welcome btw). Even with the minor scare there I still believe (not for too much longer though) I did the right thing.
