That's where Brown could make a killing, especially on this team - moving without the ball and getting himself open without having the ball in his hands. Perfect role for him.

Glad to see a higher usage game for him.

Great run.  KP murdering the small ball lineup.

Yeah, he's not a lumbering big. He can guard smaller guys.

Agreed 100%, but I don't see him buying into that though.

LOL JT is a +31, Scottie Barnes a -29 so far

Once in a while I see him take the challenge as an energy guy, picking up ball pressure, moving off ball on offense, running in transition, and generally being a chaotic menace to the other team.  He's doing it now, in fact.  I wish he'd commit to that role, instead of just doing it occasionally.  Then if he gets hot he can seek his shot from there, but start with the little things.

And another easy score he earned for himself on off-ball movement.

Great pass by KP, too.

i think joe made a few adjustments during the half time break.

It’s of good off the ball movement. Good, passing good cutting. It is contagious. Everyone getting in the act. Love to see it.

Feels like Joe is playing our playoff 8-man rotation today. The obvious starters, with Horford-Pritchard-Hauser the 3 bench guys.

JT had the lane there. Should've taken that instead of the three.

Good. Joe going with Holiday and Brown out there instead of White. Let's see how that works out.

Jrue and KP have already seemingly developed a rhythm playing together.

Yes, Derrick White leading by example. Intense D with a 22 point lead.  That is one thing that will distinguish this team from last year.
