Stackhouse off the Bench
I know it is early, and starting lineups are probably not entirely set for the Dallas Mavs. But I am not sure I want to see Stack coming off the bench this year. He is a starter. He can score and he plays better D than Finely ever did. In fact, he may be an upgrade as a starting 2 gaurd.
Not that I hate Christie. I think he is a fine player and will fit in here well. But he is not the starter in my eyes. Yes he plays better D. But he cant score as well or find his way to the free throw line like Stack does.
Versatility is the name of the game when it comes to an NBA bench. I think Christie is a more versatile player in the positions that he can play; making him an optimum candidate to come off the bench for more than one player. He can play 1-3 and do his thing. Other bench players: Daniels is a 1 or a 2, Van Horn 3, 4, or 5. This is good for the Mavs bench.
And Stack really is just a 2. But he can do it better than anyone else on the team.
