re: Griff on why the kids aren't getting minutes

Griff is basically saying they’re teaching these guys a lesson now that will pay off for them and the franchise in the future.

And in case you think it’s bullshite, look at how hungry Hayes was last night in the 4th.

I’m not defending Van Gundy/Griffin.

The question might as well have been “why is Eric Bledsoe being gifted minutes despite being so garbage?”

I want to win. And I don’t want Bledsoe playing over Hart/Redick-even late with how just god awful he is late in games this year. He’s been so bad, you can tell it’s gotten in his head and the teams. Josh Hart looked pissed he had to leave the floor for Bledsoe the other night. That’s not “valuing playing time”, thats “valuing winning” cause Josh Hart is not a “me first” guy.

Bledsoe vs NAW/Kira is a different question entirely.
