A hat tip goes out to loyal member of Rapture Nation Richard Leavitt. In his comment on my post about the front court, he offered Norman Powell as his choice of starter at the small forward position. My pick is C.J. Miles, but Richard’s point is well taken. Let’s give it some consideration.
Norman Powell might win the Most Jerked-Around Player award if there were such a thing. Over the last two seasons, he’s been in the D-League, promoted to the big team but glued to the bench, played garbage time minutes, benched again, started playoff games in lieu of DeMarre Carroll…too much.
