Dennis felt like he was a better fit, as the starting PG, than D'Angelo too. We gave him 30min a game, and Ham trusted him in crunch time, but starting meant more to him.
Yeah. But he had been the starter on his Intl teams and just come off his fantastic run doing that in the FIBA tournament. You can understand why he “feels” he’s better than a bench player. PLUS the big thing is he’s trying to prove that in the NBA so he can be paid like a starter, after blowing the alleged Lakers offer the first time here. I feel for him but doesn’t look like that kind of money will ever be offered again.
