Can the Emmanuel Mudiay and Jeff Green experiments please end.

Interesting little tidbit from the latest Tony Jones article on why Quin chose not to have a starter on the floor with the second unit tonight.

"Second, Snyder’s trying to develop Emmanuel Mudiay, trying to get him playing the right way, which is running the offense first instead of hunting his individual offense. So Snyder sent his second unit out without the lifeboat of a starter on the floor with it."

Not working....... Dante played 4 minutes and played much better. Quin must be on something. When he put mudiay in the 3rd I thought wtf. Quin definitely has to be on drugs

So Mudiay gets to play through his mistakes?

So Mudiay gets to play through his mistakes?

Apparently. Part of that equation is lacking other reliable options and going with a player that he thinks is less of a risk.

Not all mistakes are created equal. I know there are a lot of people here that don't want to hear it, but for all of Mudiay's warts, he is clearly and substantially better than Dante Exum.

That doesn't mean there isn't an argument that Dante should get a chance. But I trust Quin a lot more than delusional fans on message boards and a front-office desperate to rationalize their irrational loyalty to a #5 pick that they tanked to get.

At the end of the day, I want Exum to be an NBA player for a ton of reasons (including but not limited to that the ball doesn't stick in his hands like it does Mudiay), but this team can't be putting games on the line in the pursuit of that.
