Good question...

I would guess that Brooks simple likes a 8 – 9 man rotation, and there is too much competition at the 4.

Agreed.

Right now, he’d have to beat out Collison, Krstic, or Thomas….at that start of the season, I thought he’d have a good chance of it, but right now, the most likely to lose his position (Thomas), has played very well in 3 of 4 games. Collison hasn’t screwed anything up, and Krstic isn’t going anywhere unless he has a really, really bad streak of games. We’ve got 5 mil invested in this guy.

And then he still has some other ancilliary competition

Quietly sneaking up behind him. I’m guessing that if we get some blowout games he’ll get mop-up duty — the time to showcase himself. Brooks is aiming to outright win games, so throwing in a subpar rotation isn’t going to cut it. I’m certain he’ll get his chance soon enough.

Maybe another year in the NBDL for him

I still think

there’s a trade looming for some of our 4s.

I agree, but who?

Green isn’t moving.

Collison’s contract is pretty large, but I’m not sure how badly we need his rebounding (and tweets).

not sure...

if White has any value, he is unproven and has the “injury” label.

I don't know

That’s not an easy call, which may be why nothing’s been talked about yet.

Nice name. AC is one of my favorite bands.

Collison is a +23 for the year I believe.

If you took a potty break you might have missed him.
