Hell, I'd probably take a 2024 goerge hill at this point in time.
But seriously.
Great games by Dame and Giannis. If they made some bunnies they lost at the rim or some more free throws from the total 6 they missed, we probably win.
With that said, if anyone else could step up and make some baskets that would be great. Our defense was leaking all night long. So many entry passes... Ajax and Green need to be baptised in fire, there is no other option right now. Will they make mistakes? Absolutely, but I'd prefer it turns into a learning experience for them rather than seeing some of the **** I'm seeing out there right now. Ajax also gets called way too often by the refs. Almost like a rookie whistle. No one runs the floor, other than Giannis and Dame. They stopped multiple times because they were afraid they would miss the easy shots. Which is like a self-fullfilled prophecy.
Granted, it seemed like all the 50/50 calls went their way tonight.
But on the other hand, they were on a b2b while we were rested.
Also, watch Middleton come back and be a shadow of his old self. That would complete the amazing start of the season, lol.
