It shouldn’t matter what we fans think of the substitution pattern, analytics should be telling the staff what is working and what isn’t. It also should be telling them what each player’s strengths and weaknesses are. It’s obvious that the 2nd line doesn’t play together well enough to keep a lead that the starters have, less increase it. There certainly has been enough games, data points to determine when a starter is struggling, what player off the bench should be the best replacement. I would also think that besides analytics all the practices would give the staff the experience and knowledge necessary also. If a starting player is struggling why substitute for almost the entire team or alternately just ignore it ? If starters are doing well, why substitute just for the sake of substituting? What message is that giving to the starters and the bench? Is there anyone who can play the key point guard position effectively if Nait George is struggling, in foul trouble, or injured? Are all the players being conditioned in practice to play hard defensively and offensively for 40 minutes? LGO!
