Warriors’ center Zaza Pachulia on not playing in the postseason: “It’s all about the team”

OAKLAND – Throughout his life, Warriors center Zaza Pachulia has learned movement is a means of survival.

The Georgian center’s latest journey has taken him to the bench in favor of JaVale McGee as the team looks to push towards a second straight title.

So far, McGee has played well in the role, averaging 12.5 points and 1.5 blocks in two playoff wins over the San Antonio Spurs, including a 10 point, seven rebound performance in a 116-101 win Monday night.

With McGee playing a prominent role in the starting lineup, the Georgian center is remaining upbeat despite not playing the first two games of the postseason.
