Ammo's reward ...

for bringing needed energy to the SF position last game? 3:33 of PT tonight against the Pistons. Those of you who keep saying Larry Brown has a method to his madness, please explain!

I want Adam to get as much playing time as possible.

However his +/- for his time in the game was -5 and he only had one field goal attempt that he missed. That might have explained why he didn't get much time.

It is hard to get any real kind of +/- when you are barely on the court.

That sample size is far to small for the data gathered to be significant.

Heck, +/- over a single game is too small a sample size to be accurate.

Last night, the rotation was working pretty well if they beat the Pistons on the road. Not an LB fan at all, but i think he just went with what was working.

I want AMMO to be an NBA star as much as anyone, but I have to agree with Zagpower on this one.

That is a more plausible reason. Larry is most assuredly an if it ain't broke don't fix it kind of guy.

Makes sense, but I also wonder how Ammo is ever supposed to gain confidence or get in a groove if he plays solid minutes in one game, gains praise, and then rides the pine the next game. This is why I don't think he works in Charlotte. The team has such a narrow margin for error that lineups change from night to night, giving a rhythm guy no chance to establish a rhythm. Sure, it's on Ammo to play well no matter the situation or how many minutes he's on the floor, but 20 minutes one night and 3 minutes the next has to wear on a guy, especially when they thought they were back on track.
