I'm hoping
He wasn't benched. Karl gave him a bit of a breather.
its for rotational purposes. Such as he isn't going small to often tonight. But the timing of the sub was weird we had just taken 5 pt lead (biggest lead at the time) 7 min left

He actually was benched, as in taken out and given a seat on the bench, in a literal sense. I just didnt like it being done so early Id rather him get some more run with the entire first team, just voicing my opinion.
Benched traditionally means taken out because of some wrongdoing, lackluster play, etc.

You asked a question and I answered. I think I'll trust George Karl's instincts in this regard. FWCS played hard last night and I think Karl may just be making sure he has enough left in the tank for the second half tonight.

No Karl with Griffin, Jordan, and Paul coming in. This is not the time to bring in butler with collison kosta bells and Rudy. Please don't have that lineup out there after break or this lead shrinks

Has it been perfect? Nope. Are we winning? Yep. Definitely a vast improvement over opening night. Just shows what a hall of fame coach, some seasoned veterans and heart can do. :)

We really have to capitalize on the turnovers we're getting. Rudy's made some great shots, couple of bad ISOs though.
They're not perfect but they're playing with commitment, heart, focus and determination. And, even with the bench on the court, we're maintaining a double digit lead. Pretty freaking good if you ask me. ;)

Deandre Jordan didn't look very happy when Cousins checked back in and immediately went straight at him. :)
