I like that he’s coming off the bench. Even when he gets injured, which would happen sooner or later, it doesn’t affect the chemistry too much. Having 1000 different starting lineups would kill us
Him and Poole off the bench is great. Killer second unit to have to play against when healthy. I’m liking what Borrego is cooking
Zion’s to the opposing team when he comes off the bench is essentially
“I’m here to score and chew bubblegum, and I’m all out of bubblegum”
Stats show Pels are now stacked thus leaving the leauge fucked
If the goal is to build Zion’s trade value, it’s foolish to bench him.
No one will trade anything for a max-contract bench player.
It makes sense if they’re only going to play him 25 min anyway.
