Message: [QUOTE="superjohn, post: 3365122, member: 1522"] No, I don't think it was enough of a message and I disagree with the pychology/theory that benching CV would be forfeiting the game and giving up on the season, I see it as the exact opposite...sticking with CV is the reason we lost the game and we would have been better off with him on the bench. Again, Alterique can't really be benched because we need his ballhandling and breakdown ability. When Vital is going bad like that I don't want him near the court let alone playing point guard. When CV and AG are both going bad they basically give away any chance we have at winning. The way this team is going to reach it's potential is Alterique being a facilitator and Bouknight, Carlton, Akok, and Polley taking the bulk of our shots. Vital plays hard and rebounds great for a guard but he's probably the biggest giveth and taketh away player I've seen. His style of basketball is not conducive to winning and the progress of a team with some serious young talent.... He can be a really valuable piece if he would just play his role but he has never really shown he's capable of that. If his role continues to be the guy with the most minutes on the team and the most shot attempts it will be on Hurley....I don't see how you win this way. [/QUOTE]
