Because Delfino likes to eat. Nah ... Delfino has missed games twice already (2-3 games each time) in the season. We need more depth in the 2 and 3 position. We also don't want to run Parsons to the ground.
If McHale doesn't play you, it's usually because you can't follow the defensive schemes. He plays PPat because he's our 2nd-best post defender. Coaches were also playing TD a lot early in the season even when his 3pt shot was missing because of his defense.
