Terry Stotts is staying with what has brought him success and is keeping Michael Redd and Brian Skinner in the starting forward spots, while running Charlie Bell at shooting guard.
I think this is an excellent choice, albeit a no-brainer. Charlie Villanueva has yet to find his touch after coming back from his injury.
Ruben Patterson has been absolutely excellent off of the bench and is one of those short burst, high energy players that isn’t exactly suited for starting and playing the entire first quarter. He’s a game changer when he comes off the bench.
As evidence of my previous point, in the Cleveland game last week the Bucks were out of the game in the 3rd quarter. Down by well over 10, but did Ruben quit? No. His tenacity on the offensive boards helped change the game and give the Bucks a chance come the fourth quarter. He did this all without Andrew Bogut and Michael Redd on the court.
Ruben Patterson may be one of the best non-starters in the NBA.
