Warriors’ David West struggling to get on floor vs. Rockets
After spending much of his 15th NBA season testing the limits of his prime, Warriors center David West finds himself in unfamiliar territory: out of the regular rotation. In each of the past four games, West hasn't played in the second half. A player who averaged 13.7 minutes per game in the regular season has logged four minutes and six minutes, respectively, in Games 1 and 2 of the Western Conference finals. West's decreased playing time is rooted largely in the fact that this isn't a great matchup for him. With a small-ball lineup that requires opposing big men to defend guards off ball screens, the Rockets are better-suited for the likes of Kevon Looney, Draymond Green and Jordan Bell.
