Some dudes are better off tge bench!

Some dudes are role players!

Let them play their role, excel at that and enjoy that! Not everyone should be a starter or play 35 mins

Exactly. I don't think it has crossed many people's minds that maybe he's doing well because he's in a role where he can play to his strengths and not be asked to do too much. If he did start and started struggling against first units, all you'd hear is how horrible he is and how he needs to be traded....
