our first guy off the bench before OG was hurt has disappointed on both ends of the court for 2 series now. he had 1 game but otherwise has fired off 8 or 9, whatever it is straight duds ON BOTH ends.
that's miles McBride.

48% and 43% against Philly. 11 ppg, 11 assists total with 3 turnovers
Yeah one good game right on the money

It's only because Burks has been so bad, up until the last 2 games, that McBride has been called up. I think he's been a little overwhelmed in this series. I'm expecting to see Burks with bigger minutes tonight.

He was playing Deuce 48 minutes in Golden State not too long ago. And Burks barely any minutes. To go from that to a new plan even after Deuce had an excellent first round is very dubious. This series is all of four games lol.
Our 2 and only wins in THIS series were with Alec not playing and Deuce playing significant minutes. Deuce’s poor shooting of 6-17 was in a blowout loss, the same game that Alec “broke out in.” (Terrible players love nothing more than getting some shots up without pressure.)
At our age, don’t fool yourself into thinking Burks will contribute to a good playoff W ahead of Deuce, outplaying Deuce.
Since even some of the moderators are complaining about me — I make this solemn promise: If Burks is on the court for just one playoff game where he is a key contributor, or even plays the last 5 minutes in a win, I’ll gladly not post the remainder of the playoffs and into June.
That’s my self bet: you won’t see me (not one post) if Burks helps in a big win. It won’t happen! If it does, I’ll go bye bye.
Happy to put some parameters around minutes or points but if he is a key guy in a big playoff win (just one), we’ll know it when we see it.

Sham - has iHart grabbed one legitimate rebound in traffic this series? Feels like he’s been overmatched physically in every game. His January 12.5 RPG run had people drinking the kool-aid but the reality is that he’s grabbing you 7 boards at best these days.
Has he had some nice moments passing? Absolutely. But we need him to be an absolute menace on the boards & defensively. He’s also blocked just 2 shots in 136min vs Indiana. Its like he’s morphing into Nurkic

Over the last 15 games of the regular season, Hart was 1st in total minutes, DiVo 2nd, and Brunson 8th
That's the bigger issue than playoff minutes and is why you need a bench. Not for the playoffs, but for the regular season so that guys aren't dead when you get there.

Gee, I don't know, maybe the one that won us Game 2 vs. the Sixers
Hartenstein was good the first two games vs. Indiana. He had a great Game 2. He was so so in Game 3 and he was bad in Game 4. Lets not get carried away with BS agendas just cause someone is a fanboy of someone on the same team. It's **** weird and annoying. Overall, he hasn't been great, but he's had his games and moments.
