    I don't want to be condescending or to hurt anyone's feelings but why is Aminu getting close to 40 minutes? Why? Give me the rationale. What does he bring to the table? How does he earn such minutes?

    Right now he's our 3rd best player & it's not that close. If you can't see that - then I don't know what to tell you.

    I don’t want to be condescending, but why are you posting?

    Tim Frazier is likely 50 times the player that Aminu is.

    OK, don't sigh, Chief needs to earn his minutes, if he earns them, fine, but don't just give him unlimited playing time because he's chief, crazy Meyers Leonard also deserves some chance

    13 rebounds, 5 for 8 3-pointers and a +11.

    You're right. He didn't deserve 40 minutes tonight. He deserved 48.

    Aminu is looking really good this year. He looks a lot more confident in his three point shooting, which is something this team desperately needs.
