Every year there are players that start on the bench but they suddenly explode ( sometimes when the Starter gets injured) Rookies that prove to be worthy, Veterans that suddenly get a second wind, underachievers that suddenly become a blossom players that are traded to a new team with better competition for the amount of playing time.
Which players do you see making the leap and becoming starters?
RODNEY CARNEY: its a joke that he isnt already, Korver can shoot, shoot and shoot, but nothing else, Carney is more complete, only doubt if Thaddeus Young will show some flash as a Rookie that he might be the one stepping out instead of Carney.
JASION MAXIEL: has evolved and improved every year they really have a problem at the center spot and Rasheed may have to take that Position wich would lead the way for Jason to Start. Maxiell might be undersize at the PF position but he is eager to sacrifice his body by getting the rebounds using his size and heft.
KAREEM RUSH: I never understand why the lakers parted with him or why the Bobcats cut him, he did some phenomenal game in the playoffs with the laker, he can score and defend, he has matured overseas, so as granger will take the SF spot over DUnleavy i can CLEARLY picture RUsh defeating Daniels for the SG spot.
ACIE LAW: Lue is a good player from the bench and CLaxton is the eternal promise that never achieves potential so, after two or three months of adjustment he will be Starting.
J J REDDICK: last year he underachieved, but he still is one of the best pure shooters in the game, and this year this Blue Chipper will emerge as one of the up and coming players in the NBA.
CHANNING FRYE: last year was not a kind one for him, but he is one of the most promising PF, and Aldridge is more a C than a PF and less NBA ready, so i think FRye will win this match. Base on the Portland Trailblazers report they are planning to start Frye in the middle of the season if Oden will not be a huge impact in the game.
DAMIEN WILKINS: Green, Durant, SCerbiak, all of them are pure OFFENSE, they need someone to BALANCE, Wilkins is the D man for the Job.
MARCO BENILLENI: Yes Ellis has shocked some people, but essentialy has reach his Ceilling, Bellinelli may not be so athletic and so spectacular but has more SOLID Fundamentals and will eventually take over him.
Leandrinho BARBOSA: he is better than bell even a baby can see that. Beside his stock will rise due to the fact that he is leading Brazil in the on going FIBA Basketball Tournament averaging 27.6 PPG.
ANDREW BYNUM: i hope at least he can go on developing and produce something like 14/8, Mihm is Coming back form injury and kwame, well its kwame so i bet he ends up starting. If Bynum wants to be the future of the LA LAKERS he must show some hunger and desire to play basketball. Bynum is in his 3rd yr. in the NBA and this might be his breakout season.
Daniel Gibson- after coming off the bench from most of last year and exploding in the playoffs. I predict that he will be the starting PG of our team next season which means that Larry Hughes will be elevated playing the number 2 position which is basically good for our team. Enough of the Larry Hughes for PG experiment because it only devaluate his scoring ability.
Aaron Brook- one of my darkhorse candidate for NBA Rookie of the Year being 5'10 1/2 he prove in the summer league that he can play with the big boys in the NBA. He lead his team in scoring and have one of the best play in the Summer League.
Mardy Collins- He show some flash last year at the end of the regular season almost averaging a triple double in the last 9 games of the season. I think that he will surely be a better fit than the aging Stephon Marbury because of his defense and one of the most hardworking player in the league.
