I think he still will have a role at some point in the playoffs. I think he is the 11th man.
If Clarkson didn't have such tunnel vision and Green wasn't put into the starting lineup, I think Cedi might have jumped someone to get into the second unit. Calderon is now necessary so there is a PG on the floor with Clarkson to keep him in check.
Cedi fit real well when the second unit was more about getting up and down the floor trying to get points in transition. Without Green and Wade, the second unit's idenity is more of a half court offense now.
Cedi is good insurance and might be necessary if we need to lock down two ball handlers.
He will play if the other team is just scoring at will. I will give credit that at least Lue has seen he can use Cedi like he once used Shump.
