what's frustrating is brunson and kat ran some 2 man game and brunson hit kat rolling the first time and then went away from him the next 2 plays.

idk why he doesn't go there more.

also when they went zone brunson forced 2 bad shots.

Should spam that two man game till they stop it. JB doesn't think the game like a floor general


The coach should be calling for the 1 - 5 PnR or PnP.

Shamet was good, Deuce and Payne not so much

That break though not really helpful to KAT’s injury. O think all of his made FG’s either were off the board or rolls around the rim. Aside from not letting it fly from down town, KAT seems to have very little confidence when driving to the basket, afraid that his thumb would be hit.

Atrocious defense. Just the worst. Mitch can't come back fast enough.

i don't get it. kat is a walking bucket and then the gravity he would force on the defense would open up so much for brunson and others.

we're sitting on a winning lotto ticket and refusing to cash it

Shamet drops 9 points in 7 minutes and probably won't see the floor again.

Let's hope Shammet is on the rise overall; would help. If he's shooting well and Payne is also that's a nice bench backcourt with Deuce For D.

I'm concerned about the minimal offensive connection between Brunson and KAT on the floor

We should be able to dominate teams like this if they were playing off each other

They're lucky Fox is damaged right now and can't convert his makes
