Yup and with Jimmy’s love fest of Max it’s pretty much the nail for Duncan.

until he learns to get to the FT line consistently (not guaranteed by any means) you gotta take the good with the bad tbh

The way that he plays and attacks gaps just screams capability of drawing fouls. He just needs to learn how to do that on an NBA level. I think his handles and foul drawing will be the improvement we see next season.

Kid's only in his 3rd yr & has improved significantly this season. W/ his work ethic and skillset he will only continue to elevate his game. He's having a bad stretch, just like many players before him. Watch people jump back on his jock once he starts to play better.
Championship teams experience adversities. We in that process. Started gm1. Remember this time. Remember this pain. Our time is coming...

Built the right way. Play the right way. Win the right way . .

Maybe not, Spoelstra may want "more" then just 3pt shooting from that position with Butler out of the lineup, I'm not saying this as a fact but a possible reason for the change. Personally, I like Strus more than Robinson.

Nice job Duncan. This bench role may be just what he exactly needed.

Suns are stacked and look like they are at full strength thats how impressive we have been playing to be up on them with our patchwork team.
1. Herro 2. Bol Bol 3. Seko 4. Bruno
unless we trade up for Barrett or trade down for PJ Washington

Even if that was a miss. I'd rather Herro attack the rim. Better going 0 for 10 with layups then 0 for 10 with dunks. Gives guys like Yurts a better chance of rebounding. I hope Spo had this convo with him on shot selection which has been atrocious past couple of games. Less contested jumpers, more layups and catch & shoot Js.
