Mack playing well in the first 3 quarters are a massive reason we are even in these games at all. Yes, Mack has trouble hanging with the Warriors starting units in the 4th quarter. Surprise, but the hate he gets is laughable. He is the best option and he deserves the minutes. If Hood could do anything in his minutes, we wouldn't have to put such a huge burden on Mack to do as much.
Mack is (9-29) from the field this series for an impressive 31%. How's that for facts, bitch?

Gobert and Hayward are carrying this team. It's laughable that you think Mack is a big reason why we're in the games. That's the funniest **** I'll read all week.

Someone can have bad stretches and the team can still gain points.
He's also 4/8 from 3 and 9/11 from the FT line and was instrumental in getting Green in early foul trouble of game 3.
Mack is the team's 3rd leading scorer this series... so yeah. I think he is the 3rd biggest reason we are in a lot of these games and not getting absolutely trounced.

According to a break down an article did of the stats, Neto(followed by Exum) is actually our best option and he only got 3 minutes as well. I get that Mack has the most experience. I hope if we don't find a way to keep Hill, next year we have a little more faith to run with our two young guys. But we also have to understand we are at the point in the rebuild to be pushing to the finals next year. Just like with the dwill, memo, boozer team...development takes a bit of a back seat when you're trying to win it all.
I also think Quin is trying to make things work with Dante, hence playing him at the 2. I think he's trying to figure out of he can do better there. It took him a bit to use jj at the 4 and I think he's trying to find where Dante will excel. Maybe we lose Hood and Dante improves his shot and becomes our deadly shooter.

Ingles and Johnson are pretty ineffective against the Warriors speed, athleticism, and length and Hood is in the same boat and can't hit a 3 to save his life. With Hill out and Favors being reduced to just playing 8 minutes of backup center, Mack is kind of our 3rd best player.

Early in the shot clock and a few feet behind the line? He's not Curry, that was an ill advised shot for sure.

Yeah, but it was a higher quality of shot than we had gotten in many possessions prior or after that shot. It wasn't the greatest, but I wasn't mad at the shot in the flow of the game. We could also freak out about the shot he took in David West's face, but he drained it so no one cares. Mack has been shooting the 3 ball very well the past two games, so I felt his confidence in the shot and it felt good.

Yep, of all the teams that can sign him, who has a better chance of completing?
It's not Boston, not with Thomas getting all the shots he wants.
