Oh, another point. If Lively is out for 3-4 more games and Gafford shows to work well starting, I’m not all that confident that Lively is still the starter for the rest of the season. He still needs to figure out how to not pick up ticky tack fouls and Gafford has the tenure to have gotten that far. That will be important in the playoffs. Lively can still learn plenty off the bench.

i dont think we'll see Lively for a few games.  I think Gafford will end up looking amazing as the starter. i'm not sure they will bring Lively off the bench when both are available, but i can see Gafford getting more minutes. He's honestly the better and more consistent player right now. But thats ok, we have two really really good ones now.
