Nunn is 100% a token starter at this point. Sucks to see, but he's hit that wall hard. Great story and still a fantastic diamond in the rough find, but I feel like he's a 6th man scorer rather than starting calibre SG in this league. Would love to see Spo make the move and insert Herro into that 2 spot, but think he likes him with that 2nd unit for now.
Bucks are definitely going to be coming for us. Their length is going to trouble us inside. Giannis and Lopez are big bodies, and we need to make sure we're getting a body on them and blocking out. Our defensive rebounding has sucked so far IMO.
Hopefully Yimmy is good to go. Can't imagine we will risk Gogi for this one, so someone is going to have to step up offensively to fill that 2nd shot creator void. In theory it is Nunn or Herro, but I hate having to rely on Rooks for that against the best team in the league.
Hoping that Bam continues to be Giannis kryptonite. Can't afford for Bam to be in foul trouble.
Low key have loved the Kelly resurgence in the bubble. Glad to see Spo go back to the Bam/KO frontcourt, their games mesh quite well together when Kelly is playing well. I doubt he opts out of that $12m Player Option, but if he plays hot enough in the bubble he may just set himself a market that makes it worthwhile. We'll see.
