I feel the frustration so maybe we go crazy?

Sometimes you need to give in and go with what you’ve got…As many have pointed out Book is not adjusting well so why not change things up and play him at the 4 with Jamerson at the 5….on D play a zone (something like a 3/2) … let Book shoot some 3’s and have our two bigs help each other out. I know it sounds crazy and i do not propose more than a few minutes a half in this kind of set up but give it a chance (Book. Jamerson,, ED, Perry and Sky) Work with Book and I think he may give you more….follow it up by bringing T.Bil in for Book and Dent for Jamerson and speed things up…i think we need creative solutions at this point…run them to death with a 3 guard set … drop into a two big zone five minutes later (and let Book lose shooting the 3) … then back to tradition with T.Bill, Daily, Dent, Skyy and either a guard or a big. I know it sounds crazy but we do not have a lot to lose at this point. OK…NYB, I’ve lost my mind and will go back my brothers Johnny Black and Red and my Old Grand Dad ;-).
