Fully disagree. You insert your best defensive player on the final possession. It’s defense, it’s about effort. Irrelevant that he’s on the bench . You’re not asking your best shooter to come off the bench cold to hit a 3.
Asked Jordi Fernandez whether he considered putting someone else in for Mikel Brown Jr. on the final defensive possession:
“Yes, but when guys haven't played the whole game and then they have to go guard that possession, I just didn't want to do it. So that's on me if that's what I'm completely comfortable with. Also, he has to go through those other games and it's important for him.”
Calamity of errors by Mikel sunk Nets. He’ll learn and Jordi needs to do better too. But I saw a fearless rookie willing to take (and make) huge shots down the stretch in Boston , w no fear. We have a baller!
Celts arguably smartest franchise in NBA. They start Mitchell Robinson at C (7’ /235 lbs) . And once he’s in foul trouble , back-up is 7’/250 lb Neemias Queta. Prioritizing bigs name of the game . Fire Sean Marks.
I’m sure Madders as bummed as the supporters, but 1 game on, 3-4 off isn’t workable. Hate to say it, but Madders needs to consider calling it a career IF this is how it’s going to be.
🚨Roberto De Zerbi has admitted James Maddison has had another injury set-back and is doubtful to face Chelsea:
🗣️“In the first 3 days (after Coventry) Maddison didn’t work with us.”
🗣️”I don’t know if he is available to feature.”
