It’s my sincere belief that we would’ve won with green out there instead of Hardaway. I’m not saying give green 20 minutes a night every night or anything but I think letting him close out the game when nothing else was working would’ve been a good thing for his growth. Especially because it’s not like the alternatives were yielding positive results that night. At least green was playing defense. Hardaway was awful.
The team was in desperate need of scoring at that point. Josh Green is not the guy you put in when you badly need a bucket. I would have been pleased as punch with Redick coming in for that purpose, but alas, he was being rested.
The rookies don't get more minutes because they're not good. Glad to see that Carlisle is finding a few developmental minutes for Green.
