You're trying to rationalize why Trae didn't touch the ball. Perhaps there's truth to the idea that Nate drew something up that focused on someone else because of the high likelihood of a double or triple team. Perhaps he drew something up for someone else because Trae checked out two games ago and knew there was a 0% chance of success. Perhaps he drew something up because Trae conceded the loss already in the huddle.
IDK and it really doesn't matter. Simmons may have really flubbed an in-game decision with the ball; but at least he had the ball ... and was in the game.
