Spurs can't afford to have 3 offensive liabilities out there at the same time. Splitter isn't gonna give you much offense and I think he had 3 shots blocked in the first half alone. That ain't good enough. If Green can't get free or his shot isn't falling, he shouldn't be playing. And Leonard just doesn't have enough offense in his arsenal to warrant playing all those minutes is his defense isn't up to the task. Those 3 can't play at the same time. Even if it's only the 18, 19 minutes a game that Splitter and Green play, they don't contribute enough in that time.
Mills and Belinelli should have majority of Green's minutes. Green isn't good enough to be starting in the NBA. He's a shooter, plain and simple. He's a spot up, stand in the corner or run off a screen shooter. He's not gonna beat anyone off the dribble or commit defenses and make the right pass. He's a bench player. Same for Splitter. He brings defense and rebounds. That's it. Bench player. Leonard has shown he can score but he's either too afraid or something because he's been shit basically the entire playoffs offensively. He shouldn't be playing half an hour if he's only gonna score 9 and NOT defend LeBron.
Still think Jimmy Buckets is a better defensive player than Leonard and always will.
