That early baseline KAT in out and in juke is going to result in dunks on like 80% of NBA centers.

Yeah I don't know what Dunn is doing pulling up. Looks very hesitant in doing so. He's gotta be more aggressive going towards the basket and get more physical. He's technically "open" on some of those shots but that's not his style of play.

Well, sometimes he has to pull up cause the offensive play stalls and the clock is running out. But that;s another issue.

bad bad play by Dunn. He just needs to attack the basket. Way too passive right now, just very tentative. Game seems too fast for him.

Zach looks unstoppable coming off screens and his decision making and reads off them are looking better.

Lavine looks fantastic. He's still needs work on his awareness but every year he makes a noticeable improvement on both sides of the ball.

It still makes me laugh that some people thought we'd really move Ricky in favor of Dunn like we'd kill our newly found PG depth just because we happened to draft a guard.

I would really like to see this team turn heel and be a second generation of the "Bad Boys" lol. They are very nice guys but I think they got the potential for some real physical and nasty play

It's comical how easily KAT can get by these bigs and looking like that will apply to 90% of 5's in the league.
