RE: Huggins on Kirkland's playing time

[Brad Holdheide]

Tarons defense was so good that he allowed Dwayne Wade to have 27 points on
8-14 shooting, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists.  That's why we play Taron over
Chad??

Everyone keeps calling for Chad because of his "good" moments, but seem to
ignore his "bad" moments.  But then they are hypocritical when applying the
same logic to Barker.  Ignoring the good things and focus on the bad things.
Chad has been bad alot more than good and Barker has been good alot more
than bad.  I still think they complement each other well and agree that I'd
like to see Huggins work him in more, but at Barker's worst on Sat., he was
not as bad as Chad's 3 minute stretch.
