JJZFL 619 Report post Posted January 2, 2017 I don't see his performance in garbage time changing anything. What could change his playing time are two possibilities: 1. We have a bad enough record, late enough in the season, that playoffs begin to look out of reach. At that point I could definitely see them giving Mario more PT to see what he might be able to do (if anything), since we wouldn't really be risking much, or 2. The other SG/SF are all playing so poorly that again, we have nothing to lose by putting Mario in there. Short of those two scenarios, I doubt his status changes much. He'll still get in occasionally, during blowouts and in unusual situations, but that's about it. eh, I think he might get those Watson minutes after last game Then if he does well in that realm for a few games he'll get more regular minutes Watson still getting the backup shooting guard minutes. Smh At least for this game nothing changed. If we go on a losing streak that makes playoffs a more remote possibility, I would imagine we see more of Mario.

Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted January 2, 2017 Missed it -- why did we lose Couldn't find a lineup that played on both ends of the court. It was a 20 point game but the end of the bench had some life at the end Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's about playing guys who give you the best opportunity to win now and more importantly in the future. Mario>Watson or green Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JJZFL 619 Report post Posted January 2, 2017 Missed it -- why did we lose We were beaten in just about every facet of the game. Basically we gave up our recent norm of about 120 again, and we shot poorly, 10/38 from 3. Down by 11 at halftime, it was never really close in the second half.

JJZFL 619 Report post Posted January 2, 2017 Mario, Onuaku, and Wilcox all +7 in 4 minutes. Using basic math, had we played all 3 the entire game, we would have won by 84 points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JJZFL 619 Report post Posted January 2, 2017 This team gets blown out way too much. Inexcusable. If playoffs is the goal, something has to change soon On the bright side, we're not losing those heartbreaking close ones :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
