D Hunter has been counting down the weeks tiil he could get back on the court.

Good on offense, but as I was expecting, he's not ready to play great defense. Worst Plus/Minus of the team with 5min left (with John).
Him coming back just after his first 5x5 practice, no Capela so no 48min with a C, and these yellow jersey are the perfect combo to loose this game

Collins need more shot attempts.
He's knocking down his three pointers and deserves more touches.

I'm not sure that's the takeaway from the +/-.

Gallinari has a much better +/- tonight, and yet his defense is a complete dumpster fire.




Besides, we scored 91 points the entire game. Defense was NOT the issue in this game.

Not the BIGGEST issue, but still 115pts
Maybe Gallo has a better +/- because of the better offense when he was on floor, despite his bad defense. Fact is ATL were -4pts in 26.5min with him, and -20pts in 21.5min without him, because they score way better playing with him tonight.

Now, having this offense while MIA were playing without Bam and Butler...
