I believe that Carlos will loose minutes as SF but may keep some of them as SG. Maybe I’m wrong, but I don’t see Skiles playing BJ along with Dooling, like he did with Ridnour. Carlitos will come very handy for that job, I think. Eventhough, yes, it seems difficult he can keep the amount of minutes he had last season.

Perhaps I phrased that wrong. I just meant there are more fish in the sea. Their arrivals could mean Mbah a Moute at the three, and less court time for everyone in general.

CDR won’t have a problem. And he is not competing with minutes from Gooden, Sanders, or Brockman. What are you talking about? Those players play up front. He is not in competition with them. If he defends he will get on the court. The odd man out might be Ersan or Delfino. CDR is come ready to play.

And that is were a good leader comes to play. In those Suns teams rarely would anyone ever complain because of the leadership of Nash and Hill. You might gripe with the coach or the management but you would never show it on court because you love your team so much. Strong leadership and structure puts everyone in place.

So this is something I wish we see in Jennings next year, even more than a better jumpshot: leadership. Jennings has to become a leader in the Nash/Kidd/Billups mold. He has to radiate confidence and make everyone happy.
