CLUTCH KUZ... or REAL DEAL BEAL? OR WHO ELSE?

19-18. Still haven't fallen below .500 yet...




Tally of POTGs
Beal x4
Harrell x4
Kuzma x3
Dinwiddie x2
Gafford x2
KCP x1
Avdija x1
Kispert x1

Easy call for Kuzma. He started hot and came up big in the clutch yet again.

Beal was good though. Nice to see him playing like last year.

Gafford also had a strong game, 15/11 with 3 blocks, no turnovers and only one foul.

Kispert and bertans scored a combined 26 pts.

Kuz, certainly.

But Beal was a close #2

Gafford clear #3

Bertans 4

Now hold it let me choose, couldn't be the booze
No it's the Kuz ("the what?") It's gotta be the Kuz

Kuz is our closer

Kuzma without a doubt!

Kuzma and Beal were both fantastic, and pretty much equal on the stat sheet. But Kuzma gets the nod with the late clutch shooting.

Kuzma easily. Brad played well for much of the game but he damn nearly cost us the game as well with another bonehead TO and selfish 3pt brick out of embarrassment. Kuz saved his sorry behind.

Dude just makes constantly makes awful turnovers at end of game situations, often in the open court. I know, I know, Beal is the focus point of the defense and he played a great game, but you'd think he'd learn just a little bit. He just keeps doing the same damn thing.

The turnover was bad, but only his 4th of the night after playing 43 minutes of PG. He also had 3 assists and went 4-4 from the FT line in the final 5 minutes.

I thought the shot was totally fine. The team was down 2 with 1:48 to go and it was a wide open look on a night that Beal was shooting well (hitting 3 of 7 on the night so far).

1. Kuz
2, Beal
3. Gafford
4. Nobody else

I thought the loss against Chicago could have been blamed on playing Gil over Gafford at center down the stretch - especially when Gill gave up an offense rebound put-back and foul on a missed FT - Gafford is unquestionably the key to our interior defense. Playing Gill over him should never happen in a key part of any game.

I'm still not over that loss to Chicago.

Like i said, he played well for much of the game. But like in true Beal fashion, he is lousy when the game is on the line. On no planet was that a good shot especially when Kuzma just hit 2. Even play by play said it was obvious he was trying to make up for the TO.

I am glad I missed the Chicago game. I understand that buzzer beater was a killer
