The feel is so bad that the Pistons have kept him on the court for more than 33 minutes?

In a previous NBA playoff game, the New York Knicks defeated the Detroit Pistons who played at home 116-113 with Jalen Brunson's final victory. After this game, the Knicks advanced to the Eastern Conference semi-finals with a total score of 4-2. They will face the defending champion Boston Celtics who easily defeated the Orlando Magic with a total score of 4-1 in the Eastern Conference semi-finals.

In this game, the Pistons' starting shooting guard Tim Hardaway Jr. fell to the bottom again. Hardaway played 33 minutes and 04 seconds in the game, made 3 of 11 shots and 1 of 6 shots from outside the three-point line, and only scored 7 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal. There were 4 turnovers and 1 foul, with a plus-minus value of -7. Hardaway little has no touch on the offensive end, and he has made many shots, but he is squandering his mobile phone again and again on the court. Hardaway Jr. also made a lot of mistakes and wasted a lot of ball rights. In addition, Hardaway, who is in poor form, has very limited ability on the defensive end, and he has no way to provide more support to the team in defense. Unfortunately, Hardaway still got a lot of playing time, which is indeed a bit incomprehensible. If Hardaway has less playing time, perhaps some potential changes may occur in the game.

In the NBA regular season this season, Hardaway Jr. has 77 times in 82 games, averaging 28 minutes of playing time, averaging 11 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.1 blocks, and 0.6 turnovers and 1.2 fouls. He has a shooting percentage of 40.6%, three-point shooting percentage of 36.8%, and free throw shooting percentage of 85.5%. In the playoffs, Hardaway Jr. averaged 31.3 minutes in these six games, with averaging 12 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.3 steals, 1.5 turnovers and 1.7 fouls, shooting percentage of 33.8%, three-point shooting percentage of 30.8%, and free throw shooting percentage of 80%.

In fact, Hardaway's performance in the regular season was relatively average, his offensive efficiency was not ideal, and his performance on the court was also extremely unstable. In the playoffs, Hardaway Jr.'s shooting percentage and three-point shooting percentage have further declined, and he has had a negative impact on the team on the court in most games. However, the problem is that Pistons head coach J.B. Bickerstaff seems to believe in Hardaway Jr.'s ability. Even if Hardaway Jr.'s performance is a mess, his playing time in the playoffs will be further improved than in the regular season. Even if you are in such a bad state, it would be less strange for the Pistons to lose this series.
