I’ve been saying it for a while, he’s not a guy you can trust to come in and give you consistent production and that’s what we need when Brunson is on the bench… a guy that can come to defend and not be reckless for 10mpg

I think he was a little nervous...

This offense is just unique to watch, the ball movement and sharing is just a different brand, championship calibur.

There is a bench. Thibs is not interested in them


Payne and precious were pretty bad in the first half. It’s a bummer that deuce is hurt cuz he can compete with these guys but idk how much you can trust the rest of the guys. Shamet had good minutes though.

Brunson made some crazy shots but they take a lot of work and are kind of a big injury risk with the violent step through

Concerns me

Having two elite 3 and D wings is pretty much a game over situation in the playoffs.

Just saying.

thats the big difference between KAT and Randle...KAT doesn't have to have the ball to be impactful. He is more than fine taking what defense gives him and taking backseat and picking his spots. But he will rebound and he won't complain about it.

The strategy of guarding Josh with a center is no longer working. Thibs obviously figured it out, and OKC’s small-ball lineup also backfired.
