He is shooting poorly but they have no choice but to keep playing him, especially in crunchtime. Even at his worse point, defenses still have to respect the threat of a three from him more than Powell. Although if I'm opposing teams, I leave him wide open and let him shoot until he can make you pay. I think that's what defenses will do in the playoffs.
He is in a bad slump. He will break out of it. You compared Bullock to Klay in the game thread, but Maxi and Bullock have shot the same from 3 this year and last. They both have had their tough runs. Maxi is definitely more important from a defensive standpoint and I would argue harder to replace.
