[QUOTE="hoopsfan47, post: 1455105, member: 4716"] I have no concern of this situation if it takes Giorgi away from the basket where he is a plus player on both ends and inserts a young player who does not play very hard or play defense as a plus contributor, and run his butt off every minute he is on the floor. I truly want to see if it would be a step up for this team to play them at the same time, and I don't want or expect that to happen early in the season. Kofi has talent, but that talent has to be coached up to eliminate negative play and become a plus contributor. The light will have to come on in a hurry. We do not know how Kofi will react to having to work hard and play smart. Let's hope he has the heart to do what is needed from the effort side and insight to learn to play smart at both ends. It certainly is far, far from a no brainer to play them together....and I only hope most fans understand this....and I am sure the coaches do. [/QUOTE]
