TD will have his time, especially with a true contender (maybe next year), but until then? It's all about Billups leading us into the playoffs. CB or no CB next year; CB gives us our best chance to enjoy playoff success with this current team. TD must be a clutch 6th man.
This is coming from a long time supporter of TD since his FSU days (my team). TD has lock down defensive ability, heart, plays with intensity, explosive in terms of driving to the rim, finishing & getting red hot from the field in a matter of split seconds, but even I know enough to know that he's not ready to lead this franchise as our starting PG just yet.
Billups is still learning MDA's offensive system, his teammates strenght's & weaknesses, recovering & overall... Just getting his feet wet before exploding during the playoffs. That MIA game was only a sign of things to come. He's a champion, knows what it takes to win, true playoff warrior, real veteran leader & can run a strong half court set which is key during the playoffs.
