Cartwright making some questionable moves

[bd811]

With two of our team leadersout yesterday, Pippen and Chandler, Cartwright sat the other two for the start of the game, Jalen Rose and Jamal Crawford. Cartwright has already created a bad relationship with Crawford who will almost definitely be gone after the year, and now he is getting under Jalen's skin. I don't understand what he's doing.

Maybe using phychology a lil Phil Jackson by getting these guys to come of the bench and pump the team and from what i see it worked

Oh no doubt it worked in the game, but there's no way it help's his relationships with those two players. Not with the egoes of sports players. They were both pissed for sure!

I hope not. That shows how players have too much authority and coaches dont have enough. He let everyone know that he was in charge by doing that, showing them hes not afraid to make some changes if something is going wrong. And it obviously worked but it pissed some people off. Maybe that is why it worked.

I didnt like it at first, but the more i think about it, you're right Tony. Good psychological trick to get some guys fired up.

Word is Rose and Crawford will sit again tonight against the Nuggets. Lets see if it works again.

Nuggets (3-4) vs. Bulls (3-4) tonight at 7:30. I'm lookin forward to seein Carmello.
