All 5 guys in the game right now have contributed in meaningful mins this season and will be needed to play meaningful mins again this season.

So Joe is prioritizing them.

These 5 guys getting reps right now could result in us winning a game later in the season. Walsh getting reps. right now won't win us a game later in the season because clearly, he likely won't play meaningful mins this season.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Brissett has been impressive albeit some of his play has come in garbage time.

Pritchard is in such a groove right now as a complete player...at BOTH ends too.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Lakers need to make at least 20 3-pointers to keep up with the Cs.

I don't care to nitpick on a night when Jaylen played very well but he's clearly bought into the narrative that he's an amazing dunker and has been going for and missing a lot of dunks.

But here we are , and to nitpick it would be right corner 3 from Pritchard, who shoots that at 27.3%

I’m unaware who #13 is but he better jack up four 3’s in these 90 seconds or he’s never gonna see the court again.

I’ve never heard or seen Peterson before and he’s getting run before Walsh

You'll never convince me Pritchard's real shooting talent is 27% from wide open corner three based on a sample of like 18. We know he's deadly from out there.

Ok, I'm a little surprised that JD and Peterson are in but not Walsh..
