It goes without saying but Westbrooks 3-point shooting is one of the biggest ways for us to improve. To the degree he can knock down open set 3's we become a very lethal team.

Westbrook 5-12 but 4-6 from 3 point range. Go figure.

Rui has clearly improved over the past month. Hopeful this is a jump in his progression.

Hachimura is really stepping up Beal's absence. He's not all that efficient yet, but he's is soaking up volume, which is hard to do when the defense is actually focused on you.
Remember, he has a total of 86 games played in his career. This is basically the start of his 2nd season.

He looked real tired at the end of the 3rd quarter when he walked off the floor. He might need a few minutes rest.

same thing happened last game. He's only good for 3 Q's. Needs to improve his stamina.

I think you overstated how bad he was in the 4th quarter when you brought it up in the last game thread. Rui went 1-3. I hardly think that's evidence that he fades in the 4th quarter.

That was a pretty bad call by the official- maybe there should be the opportunity to challenge again if you get it right.

Maybe... last game, in the 4th, he was plodding around after he was brought back in. To me, he looked out of juice.
He looks to have energy right now.

I'm concerned about Avdija. I like my rookies to look at least somewhat competent. He just looks overmatched. I feel like we need a starting sf for next year.

I dunno.
Usually guys make their biggest jump in their first offseason. There just isn't much practice time during the season, particularly a condensed one like this.
Also, let's get Deni a real coach.

Holy terrible shooting night. Nate, you might be right about this Rui guy. He’s taking a leap.
