Kyle Kuzma?

He has a mythical ability to finish better at the hoop.

Why does Dairy make all his threes when the game is out of reach?

Imagine if Doc just let ChatGPT run the rotations. This would be a ball game.

Great example on that KPJ miss.

Great end to the game but a little too late. If Doc doesn’t start this unit next game, this series is over.

I thought rip throughs weren't supposed to be called anymore.

This lineup is fun and makes sense but we only give it significant run down 20 in the 4th quarter

He's had multiple today. Gonna say it's half an afternoon game and half losing confidence early.

He's our only chance. We got lambasted last year when Dame was on the floor.

Nope. That's no chance at all. We do not play well when 'point giannis' is the default MO. EVEN Kuzma, in his 1st game, w/o G or D, had more ball movement w/backup lineups w/ more electric impact than this. [NOT a defense of Kuzma!] THAT says A **** LOT no matter how Kuzma's playing now. Facts.

I’m not sure Giannis likes Gary. He refuses to pass to him for months now.

Bobby was open on the baseline but yea Trent was wide open in the corner. Trent has had himself a good game.

This is a total b.s. narrative to spin everything positive he does into a negative. He hit 1 early this game, was hitting big 3's in that comeback v. Minny, & generally had good 3 pt%'es in the clutch + v. good teams on the season. He just had that one bad month-plus.
