First we can´t play Green, because rookies lead to losses. Now we can´t play him, cause despite his presence leading to winning, it might hypothetically LEAD TO LOSING eventually. In a game we were already losing without him. Wow.
So now Green is proactively benched for crimes he hasn´t even committed yet. Well that´s not accurate. He has actually been proven innocent, but Carlisle puts him in jail anyway, cause next time he might be guilty.
I am not really sure what you are saying, Mavs2021.
You correctly observed that Josh was playing hard.
The team was not winning at any point in the game. They never led, even once.
If you are referring to the team being +7 during the 8 minutes that Green was on the court, that does not indicate whether Josh was playing well or poorly. You have to watch those minutes to discern that.
As far as the criminal analogy, I have to admit I don't understand what you're referencing. Would be glad to respond if you have anything specific.
