I wonder how this game would have turned out if Tatum had more than 1 shot attempt in the first half
Sure, but we had a double digit lead in the 3rd quarter. We let Beasley go All-world on us and the Knicks didn't even bother putting in their starters against us in the 4th.
I understand that last night's loss was the unacceptable one, but this is also unacceptable given our 2nd half lead. How do teams like the Knicks have a better bench than we do?
Cause we have 3 injured starters and an injured bench player.
2 injured starters and 2 bench starters, but yeah, I get it. When we lost Hayward, DA should have immediately signed a veteran scorer. We could then dump Nader and use the DPE later. This is ludicrous. We are/were the #1 team in the EC and we are currently counting on Nader, Yabusele, and Ojeleye for consistent minutes. Rozier is turning into an absolute disaster, too.
I am just not sure what purpose this is serving. The Cavs have Wade, Green, Thompson, and Korver coming off the bench with IT/Rose coming back soon. Our young bench players aren't exactly high potential prospects either.
