Temple has always impressed me. He's basically the perfect 4th/5th guard.

Can't blame Randy for what EG has given him. Nene is back in but he has to limit his minutes to keep him fresh, especially on back-to-backs. If Seraphin wasn't so sh-tty. this wouldn't be as much of an issue.
I must not be explaining it well enough.
It is a little tight right now without Trevor A available. Going to have to use a short bit of Maynor and Kevin to get through the rotations but you can't play the starter the entire first quarter and then empty the bench all at once.
You need to stagger it. Specially if you have a good lead.
We're doing ok without a stagger. But I see you're point. I'm not that stupid.
Ah.. cool..
So here is my big worry now. They are on a back to back and Randy has already pretty much max'd out the starts minutes. How are they going to be able to keep that up. I expect worse D, missed outside shots. And he will do another whole sale change to the bench which will likely be a mess.

Jack is worth way more than the MLE. Every team would love him on their bench, he's probably the best backup PG in the league.

The one thing I'll say about Maynor, as bad as he's been, is that he's playing with duds offensively in Vesely, Temple and Booker. At least he can pass the ball but has nobody to pass it to.

Nice to see the old Martell of last year. I guess coming off the bench isn't his forte.

Wall is a great playmaker, but horrifically bad at trying to create his own offense

a beal or webster 3 here would be a good way to go into the locker room
or simply a Nene or Gortat made bucket inside

He looked pretty tired on those last two plays.
Weak drive and then no legs on his one on one move.

John thinks he can break everybody down, but he can't. Would have been nice for Gortat to set a high screen there.

It's pretty normal for him to come up short on those end of the quarter, end of the half plays. Need to run a play instead of John just going one-and-one.

He said last year he prefers starting cause when your coming off the bench it takes some time to warm up and get in the flow of the game

Can't blame him on a back-to-back, but he's still playing very well.

Hard to complain about a 19 assist first half and the defense looked as good as it has all year.
