It was like Fox the last game against SAC. He was missing everything at close range, shots he'd normally make in his sleep. KAT looks similar right now.

Bench seem to be using their speed. Idk what it is, definitely more energy lately not waiting for shots like before.

Our small ball units with Brunson on the bench cover lots of ground quickly with passes instead of dribbling.

He's trying to maintain verticality and not foul but doesn't have the knack of rim protection

I wonder how much KAT is affected by the sprained thumb and bone fragment floating around? Is that something that can improve without rest or surgery?
