So is Jaylen Brown to blame for Luka being dealt to the Lakers?  :P

Hachimura is getting a lot more shots recently. He looks a legit 3rd option for them only they already have A Reaves so he is their 4th guy. He has been a major beneficiary of all this extra passing Luka has added to the team.

For February, Hachimura is scoring 17.8ppg in 34.8mpg.

He is shooting lights out with 53.6% FG% 39.6% 3PT%.

Kyrie's growth in maturity as a floor general / true PG has been remarkable to see. Strange to see it so late in his career. He has been playing very well for Dallas since he got there.

I was just thinking that. Kyries kept his nose clean for a while now. Guess he grew up once he turned 30.  :laugh:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

I mean... JB didn't shut Luka down, lol.  That's some hyperbole.

But I think Who's point about being more scared of his passing is absolutely correct.  Nobody can shut Luka down, but JB was able to take on a lot of one-on-one possessions and hold his own... which means those other guys like Washington and Lively weren't allowed to do very much.  They only ate if Luka fed them.  I'll happily let him have his 30 as long as those other guys aren't popping off with him.

Beautiful pass by A Reaves to Knecht for the dunk.

Kyrie looks so different without his beard.

Still remember when people were trying to say that Grant Williams was as good as PJ Washington.  :laugh:
