Don't need him starting, just like AV.Keebler wrote: I like the numbers West is putting up off the bench. Wonder if he could do the same while starting.
West will always be in the game at the end in close situations. But when Bron and Mo go to the bench, West can come in run the point and still be a go to guy scoring the ball.
There is no reason, when fully healthy, to put all your scorers on the court at the same time during the whole game. Spread it out, have defensive guys and sharp shooters around LeBron (Parker) and then bring in AV/West together to keep the pace going.
