Conceding midrange floaters is fine until crunch time. Brook just cannot be out there to close games. It is a layup if the guard is feeling it, as DLo most definitely was. We all knew it was coming. Bud was guilty of this as well.
There was actually so much miscommunication/lack of execution on that play it's insane. Like Dame gets eaten alive by a complete nothing screen, Brook shows and then Dame overcommits like crazy outside the three point line. Brook knows he needs to help but there is literally not a soul between his man and the basket so if he gets up it's basically just a dump off for a dunk. Beasley's sitting lost in the lane calling for Giannis to come over and get the roll man but Giannis literally stands there playing grab ass with Dinwiddie the whole time and Malik couldn't look more confused. It was actually such a **** show. Also, actually a really good play from Darvin.
Like if Brook steps up here (or it's Giannis at center, Crowder there, whoever really), this is just 2 points for Rui instead of Russell.
