    Bebe is somewhat understandable, because he gave us a lift in Game 1.

    Brown made no sense whatsoever.
    Brown is the G League MVP isn't he? It was a blow out at the point he entered so I don't see the problem with giving him those garbage minutes that keep Lowry and Delon off the floor and away from potential injury.

      Don't think we can call the start of the 4th quarter of a playoff game, 'garbage minutes'. That term is reserved for when the outcome is all but certain. It was only a 10 point game.

          Valanciunas might have the right mindset, but does Casey? You know Casey wants to go CJ Miles at Center to show them that if they go small, we can go smaller.

          • DeMar is 6th on the team in PER in the playoffs this year. Lowry is 9th. JV leads the team.

            Can you guess:

            a) The 4 players below Lowry? Three of them have negative PERs.
            b) The 4 other players above DeMar? DD sits at 22, so all 5 have a 20+ PER. The highest is JV with 24.9.

            Hint: the two between KL and DD are Lorenzo Brown (17.2, somehow) and Pascal Siakam (13.1).

              I'm telling you man - psychological warfare!! Casey is living in their heads rent free!

                JV seems the sort to parrot what they've been saying in practice, in generic terms. So at the very least I think Casey has been telling JV that that's the approach. In-game, well, we'll see.

                  Ya, I just assumed that Jonas was repeating the team's talking points.

                    Just a guess here:

                    a) Norm, Bebe, Jak and Fred (only played a couple of minutes and was terrible)
                    b) Serge, CJ, Delon, and OG

                      Nailed it. I was going to comment that it fell exactly in line with how I'd viewed the games so far, which is odd for PER.

                              • It would be unfair to expect OG to play well on offense on the road. But I always know his defense shows up.
