They may be better for now with the units that know how to play with each other.

He was quite emotional in the post game about hitting that shot.

Glad they didn't. Goga had a good 2nd half.

I thought Vic looked great. Shot was off. Couldn't care less. Looked explosive and seemed to have supreme confidence in the leg. His shot and endurance will come with time. I wanted to see how he looked athletically and thought he looked great. Test #1 passed.

100% agree. I couldn't care any less about him going 1/7 from 3. He was dropping dimes all over the place, mainly to Goga who couldn't finish them. He would've had a much better stat line if it was Sabonis out there with him instead. More importantly, his knee looked fine and he had confidence in it. He didn't seem to lose any noticeable quickness which is really what I was concerned about.
