IT'S HARDY TIME: Jaden Hardy looking like a decent prospect

[mvossman]

My bigger issue is guys who haven't earned minutes get them regardless.  Bullock and Powell can have five straight awful games and still get high minutes regardless.  

Hardy playing through and learning from his mistakes is far more valuable than playing guys who have hit their ceilings or are even regressing.  

He is going to look raw and miss assignments like all young rookies, but not getting on the court means he'll never get to his potential.

I agree with 2021 that Hardy should get some minutes with the regulars, but I don't know why you are bringing up Bullock or especially Powell.  Bullock has been terrible, but he did lose his starting spot and has had his minutes cut.  He is the only healthy 3&D player we have left, so he is going to get some minutes. 

Powell makes even less sense to bring up.  He has the highest net rating on the team, and with Maxi out and McGee useless you could make an argument for getting him more minutes.
