Here’s the Akron Beacon Journal, being interesting and creative about the Cleveland Cavaliers:
The top overall pick in the draft is shooting 22 percent. His 10 turnovers equal his 10 baskets. He has shot as many 3-pointers (17) as Alonzo Gee in less than half as many minutes. He has only made three of them.
The first 16 games have been a disaster for Anthony Bennett. Entering Saturday’s home game against the Chicago Bulls, Bennett played fewer minutes and scored fewer points than undrafted rookie Matthew Dellavedova and equaled C.J. Miles’ turnover total in 80 less minutes. Nothing the Cavs have tried thus far with Bennett has worked.
So here’s an idea…
Start him.
Crazier yet, start him at small forward, a position where he has hardly ever practiced in his life.
At this point, what do the Cavs have to lose? Another game?
