I guess is switchability on defense more important than a guy who’s shown you he can give you 20 points in a half and go on a heater to completely change the game offensively? I guess to Willie it may be.

The fact that Willie thinks Dyson and Trey should battle for minutes is strange to me. Trey is by far the more superior player despite some defensive lapses.

It's not strange at all since Willie is a defensive minded coach and will probably always prioritize defense.

As far as Trey and Dyson is concerned, Trey struggled against the Wolves in the post. Willie took some of his minutes and gave it to Dyson who did a much better job. Trey get minutes but how much will probably be determined by his defense. His floor will probably be 25 minutes and ceiling is 30 in a healthy lineup.

I think that Trey's minutes have been gradually increased as he's gotten more comfortable and puts the injury further in the rearview mirror.

I'd actually bet that Trey starts tonight.
