He's like a random geek in the park who decides to take off his glasses and play some ball games, and people are amazed.

Besides running the team so well, what's great about Kolek is he doesn't force bad shots to build up his score. He still can score opportunistically, though. He's a great backup point guard. And, incredibly, he actually blocked a shot today.

Also draw an offensive foul by bravely fighting through the screen. :nod:

When he gets a chance to play next year, people will forget all about IQ, RJ, Grimes, Trevor Keels.

McCullar, Pac, just chilling on the bench while our starters played all game all season

That MF governs the court like it's the state of Oregon

Yeah I agree

He looks like he could be a Josh or OG 2.0

THIS!!

I've been hyping McCullars all year.

Which probably means he'll be terrible. Maybe I can be randomly be right once.

Kolek just be dropping dimes left and right, delivering the ball exactly where his teammates need it
Fun to watch man

I still feel like Kolek has to hit the weight room in the summer and bulk up. Maybe Thibs sees some Kirk Hinrich in him

Let's not get carried away

He's going to be a Grimes/Hart/OG combo

He looked exactly like you'd expect him to look, in control and dropping dimes. His defense was mostly decent and he contested shots and had a block too.

Give him a few years, he'll grow his hair like Nash and lick his palm at free throw

Indiana only 2.5 games back of 3rd.

Who the Knicks playing as the 4th seed?

If only he'd had time to do the finger wave after his block on Klay

Happy to see Kolek get some meaningful minutes. He’s an assist ready to happen and that PnR between KAT and him was a thing of beauty. He needs to get that confidence and killing instinct so let’s hope Thibs gets him some 10-12 minutes off the bench.
