Kawhi and Harden actually looked really good to start this game. When both subbed out we were up 10 or 12. Then PG and the second unit proceed to get absolutely bullied and we’re down 20+ before Kawhi and Harden come back. You give any nba team that kinda momentum and confidence, it’s always gonna be tough to come back. Even worse when that team has two elite scorers like Luka and Kyrie - becomes near impossible so unfortunately the game was over before the second quarter even finished.
I have hope that PG won’t suck thaaat much going forward and that we can make some trades to help balance out that second unit with front court depth (maybe we even use Kobe and Plumlee when healthy).
The most worrying thing is that Zu still continues to get played off the court against good teams, so fingers crossed any trades can provide us an alternative style big man as well.
Overall, was nice to see harden and Kawhi make some improvements
