Message: [QUOTE="JellyBean, post: 5167990, member: 1997"] This is a great example of why I don't get caught up in "Who is starting". You mention the great Vinnie Johnson aka the "Microwave". He was phenomenal coming off the bench with his big play ability. Another player that gets forgotten is Bob McAdoo for the Lakers. He came off the bench, 2nd or 3rd off the bench, for the Lakers back in the day. And he would only play 15-20 minutes but give the Lakers another scoring option to go with Kareem, Magic, Norm Nixon, and Jamall Wilkes. Kurt Rambis started before Bob McAdoo or Michael Cooper and everyone embraced their roles. This is what I hope and believe that the UConn players are doing. They are embracing their roles and doing whatever it takes when they step out on the court. KK is a perfect example. Same with Ashlynn. They step into their roles and play to the best of their ability. [/QUOTE]
