I couldn’t believe at times when Schröder was struggling - I was hoping that Darko would put Malachi in to help give the team a spark and even some stability. How does this factor, which most of us (other than his loyal stans - s/o to you guys btw, seriously) couldn’t have possibly predicted, help out this team moving forward?
Hes not a NbA player
Malachi showed some flashes but also did some dumb things. Turnovers, missing point blank layups. Overall better than last year but nothing elite
Elite is not in the cards. If Malachi can hit open 3s, play decent defense, and push the pace that’s all we can ask.
in recent games it seems like he has been taken care of the ball and making the right passes one of the best on this team. Through their leaving him very open he’s gotta continue to attack the paint fast and make those layups. Their not all exactly point blanks but i did see one unfortunate miss in the Celtics game.
I’m treating Malachi like a top 5 pick is his rookie year. He will make mistakes, will be unstable but I will have expectations (unlike Dick, where I just don’t care for the whole year).
He is still at best a 3rd string guard.
Malachi plays well in recent games, and it’s shocked to me that he can defend Porzingis last night. Dennis should realize he is not HIM in this team, he should give the ball to Pascal to Scottie as quick as he can.
Malachi is going to be our starting PG in a couple years
Flynn probably would have developed more if he didnt get the hook from NN everytime he made a mistake. You dont grow sitting on the bench. Unfortunately NN was willing to ride his starters into the ground (and into the sunset). Maybe now Flynn will have the opportunity to develop that many hoped he would get in the previous years. Hopefully Flynn will be able to take advantage of the opportunities as they present themselves.
Development can happen in practice. Hes not good
And also Nurses defensive system is brutal for a small guard like Flynn so he would basically come in pick up quick fouls and leave
