It was a ballsy move to plug Gilyard in at point and take the ball out of Smart’s hands (especially with Rose out) but I think it’s the best thing Jenkins has done so far this season. Unless they bring in a legit wing and everything changes, I can see Ja seamlessly transitioning into this system, and a Bis, Jaren, Bane, Smart, Ja lineup being good enough to salvage the season.

Or maybe scraping together a win against a reeling Clippers team isn’t evidence enough that anything is “working” yet.

    I feel like our perimeter issues often come from over helping inside leaving too much a gap to make up on the swing passes. That’s not a height issue that’s a spacing/awareness issue.

    Granted, Gil is likely going to be too short in the long run, but he’s helping us long in the short run… When rose comes back he’ll obviously be less of a liability with less minutes, and then when Ja comes back no issue at all. Still got fix the over helping issues though.
