Yes he has, but I guess my counter-argument Is there's nothing that Queta couldn't have done easily as well.

Anthony just had his arms all over White on that drive no call.. Tatum backs away from Carter, foul. WTF.

I don't think the refs have called it fairly this game. And I don't usually complain about officiating.

Take Tatum Out.
The Other Starters can function without him.

Keep Tatum to lead the Bench.
Should probably have Porzingis off the Bench. too?

Loved seeing Tatum get 3 straight buckets in the paint and being aggressive.

Also frustrated with Quetta getting 1 minute then back to the bench lol

Joe? Are you listening?

Half are Gino minutes I imagine.

Having said that, expand your rotation, Joe.

Generally when he gets 5 or more minutes are those times when he has played earlier in the game.

My own opinion is Queta gets into foul trouble way too early when he is on, and Joe wants to save him for the 2nd half/clutch time.

As I say that, impressive steal by Jaylen.

Different styles for sure. LeBron was so explosive he didn’t need to be super creative

That was a blatant foul.

Maybe Brown didn't have control?

Jaylen has had a couple of turnovers, but he is really trying desperately hard on the defensive end, and I value that highly.
