That would be Maxi... He's not good enough on defense anymore since he's forced to play 5 for the most part and his offense has gone fast downhill.

Yeah, should have said closest. Typo. No consistency this year for this team.

Yep. Just finished watching the game and that was pathetic.


Can’t say this, as Kidd 100% communicated with Luka to see his preference.

It was record hunting for sure. I remember Drazen Petrovic scoring 112 points against Olimpija Ljubljana. Olimpija didn't register senior team in time, so they had to play with junior team. After the game Drazen said, you have to break records, when opportunity comes.

Our defensive execution is still very bad. Poor rotation, give up too many open 3 ball opportunities.

If you mean play him too much for way longer than he deserves then yeah, Maxi is the next Powell.
