Todays NBA is geared towards offense, specifically 3 point shooting, at the expense of defense. Willie has an assassin wasting away on the bench. Dyson injury might just save Willie from himself.

Makes you wonder how much Hawk and Ryan even would play with Borrego at the helm

Here's a gentle reminder that, of all our regular rotation players, Hawk has the worst +/-. The reason that Willie doesn't play him is that we lose his minutes. This is because Hawk's defense is still very much a work in progress.

I'm a fan of Hawk's game and think he's going to end up being great, but the idea that Willie is messing up by keeping him on the bench is not justified by the evidence. When Willie tried to bench Jose for Hawk, we were worse, and that's why Willie gave the rotation spot back to Jose.
