    Troy had a calf injury some time ago.
    I'm not sure if he is still carrying it.

    Sure Zhou is thin but 5 to 10 minutes gets him experience and gives your main players rest. Also, we need better backend talent

    Threads like this are why I rarely hang in the GARM.

    I really love it when
    I love it when we make mistakes
    Because once again
    It gives me a reason to complain



    What would I do if we were perfect?
    Where would I go for disappointment?
    Love without pain would leave me wondering why I stay

    I get where you coming from but at the same time this has been beating down too much that it's pointless now.
    Also I think Troy Williams is still resting an injured calf.

    In the words of the infamous BIGGIE SMALLS, WELL IF YOU DON'T KNOW, NOW YOU KNOW.

    And if you are wearing players out early on, why play for a Championship later on???

    hes not wearing players out ....hes playing them as much as possible together to learn to play together in the system , optimize their performance and increase chemistry and gods know how many there are other reasons known only to the coach

    I'm not smart enough to know what we need, however, I do agree that MDA not developing other players is going to hurt the team in the long run. Troy Williams and Black should definitely get more minutes.

    If a 5 time NBA Championship coach, Greg Poppovich, can play his end of the bench players, why can't a 0 times NBA Championship coach?? Just asking
