Dedmon vs rockets question

Just curious as to why we did not see him much in the series. Thoughts?

Not sure. But to me, starting Gasol was questionable... Until I realized why Pop did it. He was locking down the paint moreso than I thought and looked very dominant in the post against Capela. Dedmon is very energetic and I felt for a fact that he would have been very foul prone in this series. He would have been falling for Harden's pump-fakes like there is no tomorrow in my opinion.

Spacing was the biggest concern. LMA and Pau played decent enough defense that we really didn't need Dedmon.
