If you will just say it, don't distract from the question or shift the point, no moving goalposts, say it if you will and let it be what it is.
Month of January there was only 1 Knick in the Top 20, 3 Knicks in the Top 50. All at 35 MPG. Mavs, Bulls, Kings, Lakers, and Bucks had 2 players in the Top 20, Suns had 3 in the Top 20.
Everyone will agree we are playing Josh and Deuce, but they are victims of circumstances.
If someone is dead set on blaming somebody, blame the NBA for allowing this year's neck break pace. Throw some blame at Miami (again).
I recently posted about Kawhi, PG, Harden still in a game down 20 with to 5 minutes to go. Its not out of the ordinary or something only Thibs does, its the NBA.
We get hyper focused on minutes here because we watch every second of each game. Other teams are doing the same things and their players are also getting injured in ways we dont pay attention to.
