He needs to be 20 at most or we can only play him every 5th game. And he needs to sit the last 30 games of the season. Then he might play half the playoff games.
Bro, you’re obviously still hurtin’ pretty bad. 27-28 is good. No b2bs. Pick up the load management down the stretch.
Yeah just now seeing even last year he was <30. I was thinking he was like 32 so definitely could shave a few more.
This looks about right to me except I wont be at all surprised if Gay gets no minutes at the 5 most night.
Don't get me wrong, half the playoff games would be double what he played this year. But it will take locking him away for 3 months at the end of the season so he doesn't Boozer his hammy or anything.
Bro he played 29 minutes a game the last 2 years and could manage to play in 2/3 of the games. It seems like sarcasm, but he's probably not far off. Conley will probably need to play significantly less minutes unless his hammy undergoes some healing miracle. Especially if you want him for 3 more ****ing years. Conley has never been anything near an ironman and he's obviously aging.
What did Locke say?
It was in his podcast with Boone- he said basically what I just said- Whiteside has not been highly effective at 15 minutes a game like in SAC last year. He's been more effective and engaged when he plays higher minutes - around 30 minutes a game like in Portland and Miami.
1. There's no way the Jazz are experimenting with the idea that Rudy is expendable. If they were, Whiteside wouldn't have been the afterthought. And he wouldn't have been the second guy they were looking at. Of course, they could do this indirectly. The reality is, is that if we feel we can get more traction without Rudy, then there's no other team who will value him more than us and we're not going to get any kind of equal value for his contract and would be getting a lot of garbage salary attached.
