If Chris Paul wasn't hurt then it would have made some sense, but the problem is Joe Johnson has no athleticism left in him and he isn't reliable enough from 3 to be a spot up shooter anymore. Plus he is a defensive sieve something the Ariza still brings to the table despite his inconsistency on offense.

D'Antoni doesn't know how to plan ahead, that's why. Even though ISO Joe is past it, he should've got minutes when the Warriors second unit was on the floor - allowing the Rockets main wing defenders to get as much as rest as they possibly could.
Atleast joe can create and take some pressures off of harden. Plus when joe had his moment tucker cut to the basket and joe hit him for a layup. I see no reason why joe can't make passes and allow harden to rest.

Let my man enjoy his last ride in peace
So what? This is the playoffs win or go home. Obviously he should've been used more. He actually should been installed in the game plan for 6&7 since Paul was out injured. He's one of the only guys on their team that has proven himself in the playoffs. They missed 27 straight 3s, they should've tried anything else.

Coulda given him a little more burn
That was likely the reason and his points weren’t going to offset what he’d likely had given up,
hes perfect for slowing down the game and taking good shots
