He is so important. 4 the team to function
Leonard? The problem has been Jimmy and Herro missing games and Nunn playing like a scrub. I don't think Leonard is that important. We need to implement the new guys in the rotation and allow some time for them to build chemistry. Nunn needs to step up and play like the Nunn before the injury and Herro needs to come back pronto. Robinson is not a crunch time clutch scorer, Herro has been key for us in close games.
I think history shows that Herro and Nunn are just way to inexperience to be relied on in the playoffs in a big role. It was one of the reason I wanted to get Holiday. I have faith in Robinson in the playoffs because his role is not vast, its very specialized. Nunn and Herro are gonna be used to handle a variety of responsibilities. But hey gotta play to get experience. This team is an offensive team, it goes as the offense goes.
Can't disagree with anything you said, but I do believe Herro will bring more to the table than Nunn and Robinson in the playoffs, simply because of his confidence and overall skills. Can we rely on him on nightly basis? Of course not, but the way this team is currently constructed with the addition of Crowder and Iggy, it'll benefit Herro's game significantly. With that said, I'm curious to see how Spo handle his rotations from this moment forward. Specially in the playoffs. We won a championship with Battier starting at PF, something I thought was crazy of Spo at the time. Maybe considering Crowder at that spot might not be so crazy to compete in the East.
