Boston and Miami are in the conversation. Look at how they've blown each other out in that crazy series.

Unfortunately there is no safe time for Josh Green in the NBA playoffs. Instant 9-0 run for the Warriors so they decided to fight instead of conceding.

Green frustratingly clearly has some Ben Simmons type issues wrt being scared to shoot. But he is also a multi tool player like Simmons though not obviously anywhere at that level. He has been a valuable contributor this season and he is the type of player who needs to be on the floor against GS. I understand why Kidd benched him against Phx but given that Powell is bringing nothing and given that the Mavs are struggling defensively IMO Josh should have got more burn on better lineups this series.

Obviously not all his fault, but it's very frustrating we wasted a pick on a guy who can't contribute in the playoffs and can't even give DFS and Bullock any rest, especially with who we could have picked.
