I have been a big fan of Newman and lobbied for him to get more playing time ahead of Sasha last year and said he was the key to us having a big season this year.
But after today I believe we have lost him, as he came in and took 4 3 pters and at least 3 of those were badly missed. He did nothing else, rebound, assist , steal ,etc. When Paint pulled him it looked as Matt had some words for him and Newman spoke back. He plaed 8 mins in 1st half , and sat there all 2nd. At end of game it showed him up applauding the team, but to me , he did not look like he was fully invested and was least happy of our bench players at that time.
I really question now his future as a Boiler. HOPE I am wrong, but am worried.
