? because Grant doesn't like/respect/accept Joe?


Maybe, I'm just speculating, but playing Horford 35 mins a game, even after Grant started playing pretty well again just always stunk of something off the court to me.

I actually suspected they were trying to drive his next contract down for awhile. Insubordination is probably more likely.

Even at age 50 Horford is on another plane of existence as Grant.

And with fewer mins in the reg season, I'd say he would be holding up better right now.

Horford didn't take Grant's minutes. Hauser and Blake Griffin did.

Strongly disagree, and even of you are right, Horford is gassed and I blame it on too many minutes. Grant could have and should have helped keep that down.
