It’s honestly so easy to answer this question, and that’s no knock on JaMychal Green either. See, we have seen Green’s ceiling, but Martin has continued to improve on something different each year since being in the league.

This season, Martin is struggling on the defensive end, but how does he get better, you might ask? Repetition, and minutes when Green comes back.

The next question would be, how would Martin get minutes? This is a tough question to answer, and ultimately it is up to Coach Fizdale — who decided to start Martin during this stint. He saw something, which helped him make that decision. At the end of the day, Martin fits Fizdale’s style of play better than Green. — Brendan Smart (@bsmart21)
