he is not playing with any energy
reacts late, if at all when playing help defense... basically stands and watches on defense more than he moves over to help
looks like he has lead in his shoes when trying to drive or even trying to post up. gets himself in trouble offensively by picking up his dribble and holding the ball in the post. dribbles high and haphazard which combined with his slow feet make it very difficult for him to get an angle to the paint
on the plus side, he makes a couple good passes per game.
IMO he's a waste of minutes but the alternatives aren't much better. Pasha hasn't shown much in his limited minutes except to be a more dynamic version of Avadalas in the paint - he beats his man, drives to the rim, but then turns it over by passing to nobody

He had 8 assists so it's more than a couple good passes.
