I've come to believe that Kemba doesn't make quick decisions when he gets the ball, and he needs to.

It allows him to avoid the closeout.

I swear Smart's next level is this. If he never had to do the primary playmaking on the team due to the team having plenty of it from drive and kick players... he'd goto the next level on offense.

Because that’s the rotation. He goes to the bench first and leads second unit while Jaylen rests.


You don't pull your #1 halfway through the first quarter. No coaches do this. Zero.

Gotta play better D. They are scoring at will... Brad should learn from this offense. So much ball movement and cutting, instead of pounding the air out of the ball.

I mean he was always gutting it threw a torn ligament.

So I guess that's not surprising.

This is pretty overdramatic.

He wasn’t benched lol, it’s a rotation. He will be back in when Kemba and Jaylen sit.

Do you watch the games or do you just complain? This is the normal rotation. Tatum will come back in to finish the 1st.
