They NEED to play him so he has some value approaching the TDL. But playing him takes valuable minutes from better fitting and more impactful players.
In 16 mins last night Luka+THJ had an offensive rating of 111.1 and a defensive rating of 150.0 (net of -38.9). You absolutely cannot play the two of them together if they are not going to give better effort within the team defensive scheme.
Cannot remember who it was but one of the coaches was praising THJ for his improved defense. Didn´t see any of it yesterday or in the preseason. To be fair. He wasn´t looking any worse than Bullock but that was more about Bullock looking completly off. Both need to offer a lot more.
