Davis is playing tentative, like he's afraid to make mistakes and get a quick hook (which is exactly what he did). Nurse keeps some guys on pins and needles, but other guys get unconditional love.
dont forget the technical he took.. that helped to swing momentum should have been an automatic hook
I know this is ugly basketball, but I think it's necessary. If a trade happens this season, then it really is on the young guys to direct traffic on the court. Even if a trade doesn't happen, it's still an important aspect to develop in athletes. It wouldn't surprise me if Masai wants to see what he was with the young ones in charge on the roster, similar to how he wanted to see how things played out after the Gay trade.
I had thought they would experiment with that later in the season, but the fact that Lowry and Ibaka injured themselves tonight and we had such a monster of a second quarter just bumped the timeline.
