[Step-Back Lauri]

Stop the press!!!

Lauri had 15 fga(!!!)

I think if you had a very high level defender who could take the ball up the court against pressure as your second guard, then Keyonte can be a starting level guard on a good team.

Huh? We lost there in 2022. Before this we had a ten game win streak with the previous loss being in 2016.

Nope we’ve never ever lost to Detroit.

I'm pretty sure he wasn't serious

Just gotta look past those 10 turnovers.

Pretty easy to do. He was awesome last night
30 extremely efficient points (Only 15 shot attempts), 6 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals. 10 turnovers is horrible. Still had a great game though.

Keyonte now at 34.9% from 3.

If you take out October he is about a 38% 3pt shooter. That seems about right.

And we still have weirdos who act like he has no future despite being one of the best 2nd year players in the nba

Keyonte has some huge flaws (defense and bringing the ball up against pressure) but outside of that, he has a really good future outlook as a scoring guard who can playmake at a decent level.

Bringing the ball up against pressure/turnovers seems like something that will naturally get better as he matures.

I don't have a lot of hope for him as a defender. I think you have to pair him with someone who can take on primary guard scoring options, so a really high level perimeter defender.

I do wonder how many defenders it will take to turn the defense around.

Sexton and Keyonte are both so bad on defense. Lauri is almost worse when you consider he should have the tools to at least be average. Collins is sadly the 2nd best defender on the team. Would Hendricks being healthy been enough to not make us the worst defensive team?

If Lauri is truly that bad on D, do you need to have both guards be good defenders? If they get Flagg, will that be enough? Relying on Hendricks to get healthy and be a rotation player seems foolish given how bad the injury looked.

Why would you take out October?

He doesn't have a single elite offensive tool. Not one.

Over the last two months he's shooting 38% on volume 3's....
