    This is a poor take. Like many of Skip Bayless's takes.

    Nards has shown this entire year he's a rotational big in the NBA.

    So what was the thought process behind playing a defensively inept big (especially against the pick the roll) against small ball golden state? I get why Kanter plays (although maybe his minutes should be cut as well) but MEYERS? Even my boy would be a better matchup.

    Its matchups, this does not seem like a series he is a good match up for, I thought he shouldve gotten more minutes in the Denver series
