The issue is fouls. Donahue basically took AJ out whenever he committed a foul (I assume because they thought he had a tendency to foul twice in a row -- something I know they were statistically aware of with Ugonna in the past). If you are playing both bigs simulataneously, and you remove AJ whenever he fouls, and you remove any big who gets 2 for the rest of the 1st half, and you need to rest guys sometimes, and Max tends to foul, it gets very easy to end up with both guys on the bench. We clearly didn't want to do that this year for even short stretches, let alone long ones. I think that was the main reason you didn't see both bigs playing together.
