If you rely on him a lot, you will have problem on any such night, if you don't have another guy in the rotation capable of taking some of that load. I think the guard rotation was just great lately.

Yeah, I suppose it really depends on how Richardson's next contract is going to look.
I'm ready to commit to Brunson being a TRUE third guard (regardless of who starts) and I honestly don't think the value of THJ and Richardson are even close. I take Hardaway and never look back (I realize not everyone agrees, which is fine). I suppose if Richardson is cheap enough and ready to be 4TH in the pecking order, I bring him back. I have a feeling that's not the case, and that using his expiring contract in a trade or letting him expire for room are both going to seem like better moves to me than re-signing him. But again, depends on the number. Overall, I'm just not a fan of his yet, though I'm still hoping.
