Why? Because Hornacek doesn't think he can help us? He's 4th on the center depth chart, and Porzingis needs minutes there too. Why is Hornacek to blame if he doesn't think Noah can contribute? Noah should be happy getting paid and being a locker room guy like many other vets in the league.
Because Noah CAN contribute, he has been in shape, healthy, motivated and team first guy all season. There's no reason on god's earth for Hornacek to bury him without minutes when KP is out, or KOQ is invisible. And it has happened consistently throughout the season.
I'm kind of in this camp. Yes we have too many centers ATM, but Noah is the only one who can quarterback a defense and there have been times we could have used that. I would also like think (perhaps unreasonably) that his offense last year was an outlier bad
what a mess -- again
if we're not going to play him we should trade him for a wing on a bad contract
