Geno isn't just a rubber stamp when he makes decisions about PT.
Players should need to earn their PT each & every year based on the needs of the team and in light of the abilities of the players that are sitting on the bench.
If Nika plays too much PG then one of the other players will need to sit who may be able to contribute in ways that Nika isn't able to.
Geno needs to make the judgment whether Nika's skills are more valuable than the skills of others on the bench.
The needs can change minute to minute and game to game based on the opponent and the performance of the team.
Other talented players have just as much interest in being treated fairly by Geno as Nika does.
It's not always about playing favorites and following seniority.
More players may need to get a chance to showcase their abilities in real game situations.
Perhaps Nika isn't the only one who can pass the ball with authority, dribble up the court & make critical game decisions.
Some fans may have a different perspective than Geno does since he's also interested in developing players talents for when he really needs them.
