Has nothing to do with his will to win, has everything to do with his slight frame and how we've seen teams faze him by roughing him up in the regular season.



He's 5 lbs lighter than SGA. I'll think he'll be alright.

He's more than 20lbs bigger than Isiah Joe, and he's out there playing.
Even Philly gave Joe a few minutes in the playoffs as a rookie and 2nd year guy that was only getting 10mpg during the season. And this was the 49th pick in the draft.



He needs the experience of whats it's like so he knows how to prepare for it the future.
And Hawkins is fearless, and that's the kind of guy I want out there. We challenged PHX 2 years ago b/c Jose and Trey and Naji were fearless out there. We need more of that, and we have it with several guys.

Except he's shown this season that he hasn't been alright when teams are physical with him.

I mean if the goal is to get him more playoff experience down the road, then you play him. If the goal is to win game 2, I'm not sure you play him.
