How is DJ Augustine not a starter?

[UK2K]

I said all last season he should have been starting over Heinrich.

He balled out for me in fantasy all last season, then he goes to Detroit and he's a back up again? Nobody needed a starting caliber PG?

I picked him up the minute Jennings went down and once again, he's taking over.

6, 5, 3 at halftime after having 35, 8, 4 in his first start last night.

He must like being a backup, some guys like getting paid millions to come off the bench for limited minutes.

DJ Augustine is like Luigi. Everyone knows he's better than whoever is starting in-front of him like Mario and Luigi. Fvck Mario. This post was never about DJ Augustine. It's about my irrational hated of a video game character. Why is he fat and yet fast as fvck and jump stupid high? I'm sick of him.

DJ Augustin is gonna be pissed that no one on ISH knows how to spell his name correctly

Not like he hasn't had his chance. The guy was a lottery pick and starter in Charlotte for a little while. Guess coaches fell he's better off the bench for whatever the reason.

Nah. DJ Augustus is a cool guy

Most teams already have their starting point guard set in stone. Comparing him to other point guards, he is no better than average.

Him and Monroe are keeping the Pistons hopes alive.

He had even missed two gimme layups that rolled around the rim. He's off to a great start.

I'd like to see him as the Rockets starting guard.

Gotta ask....

Did he already play for the Rockets?

He probably had a contract for a few hours at one point or another.

Reminds me of the Darren Collison situation.

Flourish being a backup point guard to Chris Paul, then disapointed as the starter in Indiana, then later in Dallas after replacing the retired Jason Kidd. The particular thing here is player need to find the best fit for them to thrive, for some players it's a bench role, they'd be a mess as starters, others it's a specific team, that seems to be the circumstances with Collison, now in Sacramento he has been playing really well as a starter.

For Augustine, same thing, was decent to mediocre in Charlotte, then had moments with the Bulls, now is having success in Detroit (which will have to be evaluated).

In my opinion, he is starting caliber and a damn good scorer, yet Detroit might not be the place for him to have alot of success, try the Lakers or Knicks, sure teams that are down in the dirt, but man could he put up ridonculous stats there.
