As the Playoffs approaches, JJ Redick still has a lot of work with his players. And if the latter are criticized, the coach is no completely exception. His management of the Dalton Knecht case is far from pleased everyone.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Winners this Friday evening, the Lakers took a “compulsory victory” in the words of Luka Donnteic after the match. It must be said that competition is fierce to the west with 4 franchises that are fighting for two direct tickets for the playoffs. The Angelinos have their place and except rout, they should keep it to the end.<\/p>\n

But the defeat against the Warriors, a direct competitor for this ticket, did a lot of trouble during the week. The men of JJ Redick have adjustments to make, especially in defense with a sometimes very disappointing Luka. But the coach is also sometimes targeted by certain criticisms. In question? His choices concerning rotation.<\/p>\n

JJ Redick criticized by some supporters<\/h2>\n

Last February, the Angelinos chose to give in Dalton Knecht against Mark Williams. The proof that the Rookie Shooter, as talented as it is, is not considered untouchable or essential for the good of the team. But following the canceled trade, Knecht is still there, although his role has largely dropped.<\/p>\n

Since his 31 minutes against Milwaukee on March 21, Knecht is content to stay below 10 minutes. He was even bewitched, including against the Warriors this week. He has highlighted against New Orleans this Friday with 12 points in 20 minutes, enough to make the supporters react. Many want it to the staff for their management.<\/p>\n

\n

@LakersSpin<\/strong> : “Dear JJ Redick, never seeks Bencher Dalton Knecht again. \u00bb\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

@LakersEmpire<\/strong> : “The fact that Dalton Knecht did not play against the Warriors is crazy. \u00bb\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

@Legendary_GK<\/strong> : “I do not believe that the Lakers will succeed something once in playoffs if they do not seek to increase the minutes of Dalton Knecht in my opinion. \u00bb\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

@MANOMAGlC<\/strong> : “I'm going to take it to JJ Redick. Why does Dalton Knecht leave on the bench. \u00bb\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Purple and gold do not collapse under the shooters today, so the presence of Knecht seems important to add a long distance threat. We imagine that Redick held the lesson after the match against the Pelicans.<\/p>\n

Should Dalton Knecht no longer play with the Lakers? For supporters, the answer is obvious and the match against the Pelicans seems to prove it. We hope for him that JJ Redick understood, or the fans will be a little more annoyed.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n
