There seems to be no in between with this team right now. We've played 6 halves 4them fantastic and two of them awful.
I still don't really know what to make of that. Obviously when we're hitting threes and moving the ball we're a really good team.
Also seems like the Heat figured out how to deal with that Hornets small ball lineup last night and attacked the rim on every single play, on defense they just ran multiple Defenders at Kemba at 3-point line to dared him to trust other teammates enough to make some shots. There will be a lot of nights this season where that strategy will probably work. Because do any of us trust Batum Marvin or Kidd-Gilchrist to make shots in the 4th quarter? Monk so far seems like the only other player who can score in the fourth quarter.
Also, not not sure what's going on with lamb so far this season but he has not impressed or taking a jump like many of us thought he would moving into the starting role. Is he a bad fit for JB's motion 3-point shooting heavy offense? He also seems to be getting lost on defense more than usual. Things keep going like they've gone the first three games it won't be long before monk starts getting 30 minutes a game while lamb is back down to his 15 to 20 minutes a game.
We're finally seeing the version of Kidd-Gilchrist that we wanted to see all along. Hyperactive playing whatever position is needed, guarding whoever he needs to guard, wreaking havoc on the defensive end, basically just doing everything possible to win games. That being said, I feel like there's a zero chance he can keep playing at this intensity with all those big dudes down low and not get injured. He's been awesome so far this season.
I don't know what to make of our Lord and savior Kemba Walker. Is this the new norm? Defenses will adjust, then What? We'll see...
