Well 3 of them got close today...Tatum 21 Brown 18 Hayward 16. It helped that Kyrie and Morris weren’t there though. With 7 scorers in our team with our depth it’s difficult for just 4 players to score 80+ of a team’s points. But that’s ok I think. The Spurs of 2014 didn’t have multiple players averaging in the 20s, they had a more even distribution with 8 players averaging from 9 - 16:
Parker 16
Duncan 15
Leonard 13
Manu 12
Belinelli 11
Mills 10
Diaw 9
Green 9
The thing is any one of those top 6 could score 20 if they had to, but they shared the ball and the stats. That’s what I’m looking for with our team - people willing to play a role and be unselfish, feed the hot hand but able to take over if needed.
that team is a similar comp to us this year.
We have 6 guys averaging 11+
and Rozier at around 9ppg and Smart at 7ppg.
we have had 8 guys with 20+ points in a game this year
(Kyrie, Tatum, Al, Morris, Jaylen, Gordon, Terry, Theis)
