PG Detroit: 7(10) Straight

That Dame sprint into the corner while Dairy (at least I think that’s who it was) had the ball late in the shot clock was really really nice to see.

Dairy found him, and Dame buried the look. I’d like to see more of that.

If you're thinking of the one I am, he showed such good patience to slow down 1 v. 1 vs. a big, & survey his options. If that passing alternative didn't materialize, he could have tried the lower % 2 still as a plan b.

Have to give Doc some credit here. The Bucks are shooting a great percentage from 3, and getting up a lot of attempts considering Giannis rarely shoots a 3 (credit Doc there too?). Its somewhat unusual in that just about all of these guys are having decent to great years from behind the arc:

Lillard - 36.7%
Portis 35.5%
Lopez 36.4%
Trent Jr 39.1%
Green 49.5%!
AJax Jr 36.4%
Prince: 56.6%!

Wright is really the only outlier of the current rotation at low volume 23.3%.

The big question is where is Khris's minutes coming from?

The regression back to the mean has hit nicely. The hawks game was the first time in awhile none of the role players really had it going. I remember making a post when we were 2-8 and literally everyone on the team outside of green, prince and dame were all like 10% below their career avg and dame's % had fallen too after that bad stretch.
