Lively has been great, but rim protection and rebounding are still our largest problems. We have the HIGHEST opponent FG% within 6 ft of the rim in the league. 71.4%!!! We are also the lowest team in the league in contested defensive rebounds, even though our defensive rebounding chances are only slightly below average. Grant is too small to be PF imo and Lively cannot play 48 minutes a night.
I definitely agree. I am kind of interested in the Pablo Laso idea Luka supported but I wonder how he would do in an NBA situation where players don’t want to be screamed at.
Kidd is a perfect coach for a team that just wants to keep stars happy with his chill personality and a let em play attitude, and a bad coach for winning a ring. I still think we should have kept Carlisle or hired Kokoshov as head coach.
