That’s pretty lame. Why? He didn’t pull Books hamstring. He even rested for 6 minutes in the 2nd quarter!
He shortened the bench last year and played Booker the entire first quarter. Booker needs rest too. Muscle fatigue and dehydration can cause muscle pulls. That’s why.

There we go guys.

Gotta win this game. Book’s hammy usually has him out at least a week. Need to take a 2-0 lead to give us some buffer if he’s out that long or longer.

He didn't play outrageous first half minutes. You don't sit a guy who's dropping 31 in a half. Come on now man
Bull. There is a reason most coaches don’t play guys the entire first quarter.

Some team ball is nice instead of everyone camping out watching Booker get it going or not ..just like last year, I can't stand that stuff in the playoffs. Everyone staying cold around him is no good.

He played 24 minutes. That’s nothing. Come on. He just has hamstring issues. Has nothing to do with Monty and certainly nothing to do with timeouts.

I mean, he left the game a little after halftime. The rest excuse just doesn’t mesh here.

How is there not a college dedicated to the study of Hamstrings is beyond me. It kills teams in all sports every year.
