GAME 20: GSW (11-11) @ DAL (10-10) | 116-113 win

[Chicagojk]

This is an important stretch of games for Hardaway.  I believe the root cause of many of our problems is Hardaway has not played well.   He is an awkward fit as it, but this team obviously made a lot of assumptions of having Hardaway back on the roster.   I feel like his poor play is a red blinking light with most of our issues.

I think we could of withstood Bullock's usual snail pace start to the season if Hardaway was getting 16 a night.   He isn't and it is really hurting this team. 

I would use the first half as a barometer in these games he starts.  If he plays well, he gets more minutes.  If he doesn't, he gets a few minutes in the third and then probably sits for most of the second half.
