First, Q-Rich as good and as impressive as he is, can't be relied upon because of his back. Chances of a trade are slim so he then needs to be used as an x-factor and to sub for injured SG/SF.
We currently have no spark off the bench because either JC or DL is starting and Robinson isn't there. And until the brawl our bench was the catylst for the team.
Our woes right now is concerning the SG position. (q-rich=injured franchise=hurting & undersized). We need a stone cold shooter; someone that Curry can pass to when the double team comes; someone that can make teams pay when they play a zone defense. Somebody like Kevin Martin.
Unfortunately for us, teams are taking NYK seriously and they've figured out how to defend us. If Curry is on, then they're double and triple teaming him. If Marbury is on they're playing zone to deny the lane. Our weakness is shooting and they're happy to let us beat them by shooting jump shots. If this isn't corrected soon we're in trouble. Sure, when we have everyone back there will be some relief but the problem will still be there.
Look how many uncontested jumpshots we recently had against Phoenix and Clippers. Almost, nothing in the paint.
Issues must be addressed!!!!
