Bench once again ice cold from 3. And that's supposed to be our strength!Coolbreeze44 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 25, 2025 10:05 pm Ant is not stepping up like we need him to at home. NAZ has to make shots, so does DDV.

I'm almost hoping at this point one of them gets into foul trouble again so that Finch is forced to use Shannon, who seems like a good matchup for all the big, but slow, Laker wings.
Yeah, LeBron and Reeves have really picked up Luka. We need a lot more from Ant to win this critical game. He's such an amazing offensive force, but can you imagine how good he would be if he learned to move without the ball? I saw him do it once in the first half, and DiVo found him for an easy bucket. He could be a 35 PPG scorer if he realized he has a lot of willing passers who will get him looks.
Not sure Ant is ever going to learn to play the type of basketball most purists like - off ball movement, quick passes, precise reads, etc. I always go back to the Celtics spread offense and how they basically just let their perimeter guys (mostly Tatum and Brown, but White and Holiday too at times) find a weak match up and just isolate them with no one in the paint to get in their way (at least none of their own guys). It simplifies things.FNG wrote: ↑Fri Apr 25, 2025 10:14 pmYeah, LeBron and Reeves have really picked up Luka. We need a lot more from Ant to win this critical game.

But the bigger problem is our bench shooting again...2 for 10 on 3's for what is supposed to be our strength.
