He lost his minutes to Biyombo. Going back and looking at the last couple of playoff runs it is more of the same. Lakers benched him in WCF. He didn´t play a single minute in the finals.
McGee is a solid regular season body. Don´t expect him to make a difference in the playoffs. On top of the already mentioned trade off his biggest problem is foul trouble and at this point in his career I don´t expect it to change. Ranked 2nd in the league in fouls per36 in the regular season with 5.6. Even worse in the playoffs. 7.3 fouls per36. Basically a self-inflicted minute restriction.
We never played this kind of defense, if we had tried that against the Suns they would have shot us into oblivion.
