Should Jordan Start Arenas in the Playoffs?

There is no question that they are better with him the the lineup, but why rush him back just because he's been cleared to play? He clearly isn't playing the same way right now, and until he shows he trusts himself to be 100% Gil, he shouldn't be thrown back into the fire.

I agree that even at 70% teams pay close attention to him just because of what he is capable of, but they need only keep a close eye on him until he returns to form. Until which he should keep coming off the bench to build up to that return.

He should come off the bench.

However there is no reason why he should not be playing 25-30 minutes a game. He can give them a scoring lift in the 2nd quarter.

I think eddie jordan should keep playing Gil off of the bench.  It's honestly been working out.  Last night Gil had a ridiculous 4th quarter and was extremely helpful in pulling the win over phili.  Just proves its working out.  Now that Detroit just won today we officially locked up the 5 seed and atleast for our first series I would keep things just the way they have been and start thinking about starting gil later in the playoffs or if we get into trouble.

I have a great new promo I found out about. Kids 16 and under are free when adults buys a $48 or $40 ticket on "The hill".

I agree that Arenas should come off the bench. Let him get into the flow of the game in the first half but still get plenty of rest so he can play 15 ish minutes (or more as the case may be) in the second half. We do not need Agent Zero for the first quater, we need him for the fourth, and I think that by coming off the bench Gil wil be better able to do what he did for us against the 76ers. No need to blow out his knee, let him come off the bench, be a contributer, and be healthy and rested enough to make plays for us in crunch time.

No, but he should def play him more....i think eddie managed Gils playing time badly....

he should play him 7 minutes a Quarter...hes allowed to play 30 minutes, right?

7 mns a Q is only 28 minutes...so maybe even 8 a Q
