Kevin Martin had his first scoreless game as a starter in a 93-83 loss to the Grizzlies on Tuesday. Martin attempted three shots in just 19 minutes of action, but would not say that he should be more of a focal point of the offense.
“I don’t need plays for me to get going," Martin said. "I’ve been successful in my career just getting in the flow of the game. I’m over there chilling. It is what it is at the moment.”
Martin’s frustration was more about getting benched.

From what I've been seeing Martin is getting a lot of open shots but has either been passing on them or rushing them. I understand that he isn't "getting into the flow" of the games by seeing more time on the bench than usual, but that seems to be SOP for Kevin McHale.
Should he be playing Martin more, or stick with the hot-hand players?
