Vit is getting his first ever player of the game tonight.  6 shots, 18 points, 4 boards, 3 assists.  Heck of a night!

I think I voted for Vit to get it for the 30 point comeback vs Boston.  His defense picking up Tatum full court was instrumental.

Gotta call that blatant carry.

Defense is so much better without Trae, Bey, and OO..

We gonna need Trae offensively if we make the Playoffs, but being without Bey and OO will help us imo....

 Bey hustles, but Vit gives us way better ball handler and passing. Hell hes even shooting better than Bey right now.. lol

And Bruno just looks better than OO in this scheme

 

OO is probably the odd man out and he has a ton of trade value so he makes sense for us to upgrade from

Noticed him doing that the last several games. He overplays the ball at the top and then rushes back to the lane. Seems to keep the offe se from getting going.

It's simple - defend at the level of the screen and then hustles back to the paint.  It also requires his teammates to hedge the roller giving him time to get back.  Timing and understanding of roles.

Actually, Trae already bought in. The rumor was DJM and Hunter didn't buy in early on. 

He bought in on defense and not dominating possessions as much, but he's still trash at playing offball. He has a habit of standing still at the top of the key and he doesn't take shots in rhythm. Hunter moves better then him now and both were bad early on.

Well he does it a lot more aggressively than OO or Clint do. It's noticeable with Bruno.

DJ's handle continues to baffle me.
