    I don`t know about everyone else but Flip Jr. is our only true slasher/scorer/creater that could give the Cav`s fits.

    He is not super quick but has a knack for getting to the basket, the thing is can he finish consistently and/or draw fouls.

    Either way I want to see what Flip can do!!!!!!!

    I'm with you on unleashing Ronald. He could very well push us over the 80

    point mark. What other options do we really have as a backup? I mean is there anything Flip hasn't tried that might work? :sssh:

    i'm with you. unleash flip murray this will make cleveland pay for doubling chauncey. i'm saying cut rips minutes and play flip at the 2 some. rip is a better 2 but he scares me when he has to create his own shot. i think when chauncey gets doubled and the ball makes it to flip he can create something.

    also lindsey shouldn't touch the floor for the rest of the series. flip should take over all of the backup point guard minutes with webber in the game to help with the half court offense.

    I think AJ is a slasher/scorer/rebounder and can even pass. I would rather see him get minutes than Murray.

    I say let the starters play, with tay playing the point and Billups slashing along with Rip.

    Insert Murray. Put Hunter on ice.

    RM just needs to keep slashing and dishing.

    I would like to see AJ get some minutes also, however, in this situation (ECF) I would rather see Murray.

    Exactly. He is so hit or miss. If he is on though he can put up some points real quick. And how about those 3 straight steals on Grant Hill before the refs bailed Hill out.

    Joe Dumars will get a bunch of tattoos and wear a wedding dress for the cameras before he signs Billups to a max deal.

    What Chauncey is doing right now is hurting his negotiating position with Detroit, and frankly, the other teams out there with money to spend are not very attractive.

    Btw, a max deal starts, STARTS at $16 million. Bill Davidson won't be selling his windbreaker collection to come up with that much cash for Mr. Big Shot.

    The way things are going, Murray would probably take the Mid-Level to be the starter and it would be a good deal for Detroit and for him.

    That's it. I'm kicking you out of Canada for even considering an idea like that.
