Time To Give Cameron Artis-Payne More Snaps?

Recommended Posts

Washington has close to the worst run defense in the league.  I think it would be a good idea to give CAP more snaps this game and give JStew a bit of a rest.  Especially with Fozzy being injured.   If your going to get the rookie more involved, I don't see a better team to do it against than Washington.   What says the Huddle?

Yes. And Rivera alluded to it in his presser. We have GOT to keep stew healthy and fresh for the playoffs.

Rivera has been alluding to limiting snaps for veterans for 4 years and I still don't think it has happened. I wouldn't get your hopes up based on that.

I'm not. Ebbs and flows of games but at the same time I think we might see more of him active on game days.

Fozzy injured?  I missed that.  Can someone post information, please, if it is true.

Also, while I totally agree that I'd like to see CAP get more snaps, I'm not optimistic.  After all you've got Dwan coming back, and CJ & Norwell soon.  The fight for jerseys is only getting harder, and with Stew playing like he is, I'm just not sure Ron's going to pull him.

That said, it was scary to see Stew go down with a potential injury last week, with only Tolbert & Fozzy active.  I'd LIKE CAP to be active and get some playing time, but I'm not holding my breath.

I think when we officailly clinch a spot, you'll see CAP get a good amount of touches. If we can get him going and use him in the playoffs to spell Stewart, it could be huge for our already dominant run game. 

Well... let's keep winning and hopefully in week 14 we can clinch a spot with a win over ATL.

why you say "if" it is true.

hes on the injury report with a hip injury. he was limited in practice today.

Thanks, and sorry.  No disrespect intended.  I had glanced at the injury report quickly, but missed it.  Didn't mean to doubt you, just was surprised I hadn't realized / noticed it.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
