A game like this is why the zoyas, comedians, etc have wanted the team to embrace finisher Jaylen. Makes the offense infinitely less predictable.

Wants to make sure the lead doesn't all of a sudden shrink in half in a 2 minute span.

Also, it's good for the development of our bench guys if they get reps with some of the starters out there.

They don't really improve at all and we can't really evaluate them if it's a lineup of all deep bench guys in at the same time.

It's helpful to see how our deep bench guys play alongside the Jays.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Has KP smiled this much when he was with Dallas or Washington?

nope because you would punch him if tat got hurt and be in jail.


I think Joe just wanted to reward them, and let them cook for a bit.

Injury risk outweighs it though lol.

:nod:

If he would commit to playing off of KP and Tatum on cuts and one dribble drives it would be night and day

Why have that when you can do this?

A Jaylen Brown that cuts and drives baseline out of the corner and corner crashes?? Yes, please. I will take that guy 5 days a week and twice on Sunday.

They were playing against the Raptors bench. There was nothing to gain at all.
