My take:
1. Kevin Love: 36 Mins
2. Wesley Johnson: 32 Mins
3. Jonny Flynn: 30 Mins
4. Martell Webster: 30 Mins
5. Michael Beasley: 26 Mins
6. Darko Milicic: 26 Mins
7. Corey Brewer: 24 Mins
8. Anthony Tolliver: 13 Mins
9. Luke Ridnour: 13 Mins
10. Nikola Pekovic: 7 Mins
11. Sebastian Telfair: 3 Mins
12. Everyone else: 0.
They need to shorten their bench with a trade. Everyone of them is young and able to play extended minutes. I think once they figure out Webster is going to be the 2nd or 3rd best player on this team they will trade Brewer or Beasley. Telfair is obviously a goner, unfortunately it isn't going to be Ridnour. Pekovic needs to figure out how to keep the ball and not turning it over, or he will receive single digit minutes when Tolliver returns.
I strongly dislike Michael Beasley, he can score, but he limits the team dramatically when he's in the game in every aspect beyond scoring. Luke Ridnour is a HUGE disappointment and I hope he gets traded or improves his play-making and his defense. He's the single largest reason for that loss against Golden State and 2 others this season.

I'm going to give Beasley the year at least. A new system, team mates and position will have an effect on anyone, especially when they're combined.
If anyone should be getting less minutes it's Johnson. His man defence is good but his team defence sucks and he disappears too often on offence to have a starting gig. I think when Webster is healthy Wes will be moved to the bench and be eased into his role, which should have happened in the first place.
I think the rotation should consist of, when everyone is healthy, Flynn, Webster, Beasley, Love and Darko starting with Johnson, Ridnour and Tolliver with the most minutes off the bench. Place Brewer and Pekovic in depending on matchups and needs. I hate Ridnour too though, so I'm hoping he gets traded somewhere and the team gets someone else to fill his role.

There are times when he is lights out - the major problem I am having with him is the offense seems to stop when he gets the ball - Like he has to remind himself what to do before moving the ball or making move. The secondary problem I have with him is you know what type of game you get from him in the first 4 min's of the game Melo-light or Randy Foye there is no middle ground; where the light goes on and he realizes his shot isn't falling, D up and facilitate for the others. He is noticeably out of sync at times. It's jarring to watch. |

Even as one of his biggest supporters I have to admit he doesn't always look impressive. He tries to do too much at times and gets visibly frustrated when things don't work out. But the base is there, all he has to do is build on it. |

26 minutes for beas? he currently averages 33 min/game. maybe they can cut it to 30(he can still possibly put the same numbers) if you want to give more PT to the others, while ridnour imo deserves a bit more minutes than 13, and i know that they're trying to get the best out of wes johnson but 32 minutes is a bit high, he'll be fine with like 25-28. im fine with the rest

 he is a *** he is a theif he recently stole jewlery from my sister amounting to significant dollars american folks. He like i said before is a ***. Is it my sisters fault he is a no life drunk who can't even dunk the damn ball. He has no money so he resorts to stealing from young women. Once again he is a ***. He should be stopped. Anybody knowing brian skinner should tell him he is a ***. Tell brian skinner he needs to get a life, i tried using him on nba 2k9 but he is horrible he should just quit now and |

Beasley doesn't deserve to play if Webster is healthy.

Why? I'll admit he has his ups and downs but when he's on, like tonight, the guy is unstoppable. |
