I don’t disagree that the door is cracked open MOST for Bey out of all the rookies.
What I can’t endorse is this notion that because the vets fall flat on any given night, that must mean the rookies “couldn’t have been worse.” That’s a false equivalency.
Regardless of how pointless we think this season has been, or just specifically a game for which Luka/KP are unavailable, the team, coach and organization are trying to win as many games as possible.
The point is that it is a squandered opportunity. The fact of the matter is that we don't know if the rookies are worse or better than the vets as they aren't given the opportunity. It's also not like these vets had an off game. The norm for Powell, Johnson, WCS and Boban is the performances they turned in last night.
