So you said he shouldn’t be in a playoff game at all but that doesn’t mean he would never be in the rotation? What the frick does that even mean?


It means hes a liability. Which he has proven already. By being benched in the 4th quarter of his last two games.

Another bad game for Dyson.

And before town says anything about his plus minus being the best (by one point) for the starters, he played the 2nd fewest minutes of all starters.

3/7
0/2 from 3
Has not scored more than 10 pts in a game so far.

And I'm being proved right as we speak. He's been benched in the 4th quarter. All of his numbers are down vs regular season Dyson. You are grasping for straws
His inability to concede how damning this is just shows he won't argue in good faith.


And if you are going to be paid 9 figures and you can't be trusted to play 4th quarters, you're basically useless obviously. But again, he won't concede that either.

Hes not playing significant 4th quarter minutes. Hes not having a good series.
He won't even admit this.

He's actually argued the opposite, that he is playing better than the other starters. It's delusional or just a refusal to admit how obviously wrong he was.

4 years in, and a 9 figure contract hasn't even kicked in.

Nothing for Atlanta to be concerned about...

Yeah, I just watched. He was bricking 3s.

I also watched alvardo help the Knicks win. Joe gave him away for nothing.

Someone on here was saying alvarado was 3rd string on the Knicks and wouldn't play. Who was that?

I didn’t watch any of the game, was busy with the draft. But looking at the box score, he once again led all Hawks starters in +\- playing over 30 mins. So thats 75% of the playoff games he’s led so far.

Still not bad for a player that you said isn’t good enough to see the court period in a playoff game. And I’ll remind you, he’s currently the 10th highest paid Hawk. Next year is next year.

So playing 30 mins in a playoff game doesn’t mean shite now lol? I can’t help he leads all starters in that category in 75% of the playoff series.

Especially when you said he shouldn’t be what top 8 of any playoff teams rotation.

Hes having a bad series. That much is very clear.

Playing 30 minutes while getting blown out isnt good. Your plus minus argument is weak too. He played the 2nd fewest minutes of any starter. And was one point better than a guy that played more than him.

Does CJ and Johnson bring the D that Dyson does? He’s not expected to hit threes, they are. Thought you knew a little ball but apparently not.

If I’m not mistaken, he’s also played 30+ minutes in the wins. So it only counts when they lose now lol?

It’s so fun calling u and shel out on this bs.

Dude you are defending a guy that is having an unquestionable bad series. Plus minus is your best stat to prop him up. That isnt a good thing.

No, they only won the game in crunch time while he was on the bench in their two wins though hahaha.

And it’s worse than saying how DD was bricking threes all night and blaming him for the loss when he went 0/2 while CJ and Johnson who’s suppose to be carrying the offensive load went 1/9? Should look in the mirror….

I didnt say that. I did say that dyson is 1/7 from 3 this series.

And has been benched in the 4th in both of their wins.

You arent winning any arguments in this series. Not through 4 games. Its been very clear that dyson is an offensive liability whose defense cannot make up for it.
