The league thinks Brunson Stink’s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are down bad Folksssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Kerr was right....

Haliburton is in the middle of a pull up shooting heater. He's going to come back down to earth. Nothing suggests he's making any sort of tangible leap that is truly sustainable. The same flaws still exist. He only takes the 4th most rim attempts on his team and he still doesn't get to the line at a good rate. He's basically dependent on being one of the best pull up guys in the league to be a number 1 option. In theory it's possible that he's just the best pull up shooter in the league going forward but, I find it doubtful.

Hali's scoring efficiency the past 3 seasons has been peak Dirk level, while continually raising his volume. This year he's in damn-near KD territory through 12 games.

It's absolutely real.

This is such a horse sh*t take. Sturm is a Nets homer so take that for what you will.

But yeah, let's just ignore how Jaren Jackson Jr. got beat like a drum by opposing bigs, and Ant-Man shooting Team USA out of games and blame Brunson. I know a certain SF that missed a wide open corner 3 during the tournament that sunk us, and what team he plays for (and is currently sucking ass btw), but Sturm doesn't want to talk about that.

Also super weird since they played almost equal minutes and put up similar stats. Brunson scored a bit more and Haliburton racked up more assists. Brunson also outplayed Haliburton vs. Germany and Canada.

As you say, it's just a hater take.

Anyone saying Brunson was at fault for team USA loss is just a hater. Kerr pulled him anytime he stunk up the gym and played Halliburton a lot. Hali just wasn’t this good over the summer and team USA couldn’t defend a post up.

That's right. Team USA was just poorly constructed and simply didn't have the best players put in the right situations. It's definitely not on Brunson and more so on the team selection and coaching.
