When looking at the Stones and what moves might be contemplated you better carefully consider the history of the man doing the contemplation. So far his signature moves have each carried a single theme, “WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR ME LATELY, PLAYOFF LATELY THAT IS”. The list isn’t long but it includes those we once believed to be key to future success. Uncle Cliffy, Jon Barry, Corliss, Stack, Chuck Chuck…..

I believe the management decision most influential to Joe Ds executive upbringing occurred just prior to his first ship. THE TEACHER out and MARK AGUIRRE in. How come ??? Dantly was just as good a scorer as Mark, but other qualities were cited. Mark offered a wider variety of weapons they said. But most of all Aguirre didn’t need to dominate the ball to be effective. Does Rip for Stack make sense now? AD needed the ball for 8-10 seconds per possession to do his thing, making us more easily defended. As a matter of fact I recall Tommy Heinson referring to AD in Celtic vernacular as “a pounder”, one who dribbles the air out of the ball. I think Joe faces the same conundrum with Carlos Arroyo. I’m not criticizing CA or anything like that. What I am saying is look at things from the BIG CHAIR.
You may be on to something here.

When Joe was on WDFN 1130 a few days ago, he was asked what bench players he thought would help the team in the playoffs. He mentioned Davis and Delfino. He did NOT mention Arroyo. I really think we are going to trade Arroyo and ______ for a better backup PG and another player.
