God that hesi was filthy.
He’s already a better defender than Trae.
This team has enough talent to win regular season games. We have too much talent to lose like this. Something will shake.
The fuck?
Please do not trade him Morey 🙏
“I’m the Captain now”
McCain’s versatility on the offensive end of the floor is insane. On one hand he’s this off ball magnet, able to find spaces on the floor to get his shots up.
And on the other hand he’s a Draymond Green-type of floor setter, able to make the right passes to set up the offense.
I’ve never seen a player do both at an high level
So when maxey returns what happens to McCain? Can he slide into the two spot? I realize maxey isn’t a traditional PG so that might be an issue.
Would like to see his shot diet and how he’s shooting vs league average.
Anecdotally seems like he hasn’t been great around the rim and he’s been awesome in those mid-range TJ type shots.
I assume shooting around the rim will get better but mid range could regress
44% from 3 is the thing I could see regressing. Not a lot of people shooting at that rate
Just trying to figure out if he can actually become a 20+ ppg scorer long term or if this is a hot streak.
We got Larry Bird guys
More impressive:
Against Cavs.
Against Orlando.
The stutter step was a thing of beauty
It’s insane to say it considering we are 2-10, but I will take this beginning of the season. It’s a lot easier to make the playoffs from here (we are like -440 last I checked to make the playoffs) than draft a guy this good at pick 16.
