I don't think we can blame Pop on that. After losing Ford, we had no backup PG.
Basically everyone here was fine with Neal as our backup PG as long as Manu was coming off the bench to help him.
In the series agains OKC, it became a huge problem because Green was playing like . Pop had to start Manu and then Neal was exposed as the main ball-handler of the 2nd unit.
We really need a backup PG but I will be honest. I don't think Mills is answer. Plays too much out of control and doesn't involve his teammates enough. He is basically a guy to give us a scoring punch for 5/10 minutes at most. A 3rd string PG.
