I'm not a big Rick fan when it comes to lineups at times
In fact all my arguments against Rick has always been with small ball.
But sometimes he just needs to recognize when a guy is hurting the team and that guy tonight was J.Rich IMO
Dude should not be playing 30 minutes a night when he's shooting 0/9 or 0/10 and can't stay in front of the opposing teams PG on defense.
Several times he got caught sleeping on back door court.
Yes he plays with intensity much like Patrick Beverly but he's also the same player as Pat Beverly on offense.
That to me is not a 30 minute per game player.
I hated the Redick trade but now I'm he needs to replace Richardson or cut into his minutes because dude shouldn't be having scoreless games as a starting SG.
