I guess we run into the issue of opportunity vs experience. So Bullock has been terrible under basically every metric this season, but you keep playing him because he help get us to the WCF. But there seems to be no punishment whatsoever for his poor play.

Meanwhile, Hardy, who has earned minutes, can't even sniff the floor.

My theory continues to be to play the young guys so that these vets can be ready to go for the playoffs. If Bullock isn't showing up that game, then put in Hardy to see if something changes. It's really a win-win scenario.

And really, the current turnaround has been an offensive one with THJ making shots. That has in turn energized the team to play better D. You saw how electric that bench was when Hardy scored 10 points in 2 minutes. We still need more of that...a lot of that actually, just to get through the damn season.

Bullock and even McGee are guys that will likely serve you well come playoff time, but they just aren't giving you anything you need right now.
