In fairness, the bench situation gets a lot better when you remember that three members of our bench are currently starting.
Zion, Herb, and Ingram returning bumps NAW, Hart, and Temple back to the bench.
Not that Temple or NAW are giving us much right now anyway, but at least having Hart on the bench would be nice.
Basketball.
You know what's interesting to me is even when Jonas is bad, he still looks good.
When NAW's bad, he looks really bad. He has had some bad games but this start has to be one of the worst. My goodness y'all.
Yeah I think Herb over Hart, in the starting lineup. He's earned it when he's played, and I think his size and defense would be helpful for covering for the defensive weakness on the wing we'd likely have with Devonte', Zion, and Ingram all being on court. Hart's biggest skill is tenacious rebounding and with Jonas and Zion on the court I don't see that as a key 'need' for that lineup - better to have him on the bench imo.
Oh look, NAW actually tempts to get to the rim for once and he hits a shot. Miracles do occur.
Please learn the game 10!!
At this point Ball>>> NAW. His 3 ball is worse than Russell Westbrook. His averaging below 26% now.
Ball is atleast playable. NAW is burning us with his 3s.
You know what's funny? A surprising number of guards are shooting really badly this year so far.
Lillard is averaging 35%FG and 24%3PT.
Lavine is at 33% from 3 right now.
Duncan Robinson is at 34%FG and 32%3PT
De'Aaron Fox is at 39%FG and 19%3PT
Wonder what's going on. NBA switched to a new ball this year, didn't it?
It's always been the story with NAW, he gets in his own head. I think he's talented, but he puts too much pressure on himself and loses confidence.
In the meantime, this has been painful basketball to watch. It's apparent that we don't have anyone that can efficiently get us into offensive sets. I like Graham, but he's playing out of position as our point. Val is probably the only guy out there who really looks like he belongs as a NBA starter.
And by the way, am I the only one who took a look at Dallas' bench and thought that David Griffin had jumped ship and started coaching the Mavs. I did a double take when I realized that was Jason Kid.
We talking about NAW but he's defense has been really good on Hardaway.
I want to get excited but we got double jeopardy in the 4th QTR...
Welp... Now we playing for the spread now. 2nd half collapse on cue.
