Holiday kinda deserves the clutch minutes. Our core players shrink in those high tension clutch minutes. You saw Amen fumbling and. Getting blocked at he rim. This open corner 3’s that Jabari typically hit, we all now werent going in when we desperately needed a bucket j the last 5 minutes. Sengun was blowing 2 on ones and messing with the refs. Reed starts to pick up his dribble prematurely. That’s the sign of a guy who doesn’t want the ball . The only two players with ice cold veins shooting in the closing moments I really trust are KD and Holiday. Holiday just doesn’t care what point of the game he’s in, he wants to shoot and he shoots it confidently.
I also trust Jeff Green, but Ime rather let him lead the cheers. So is Ime testing starting line-ups now? I don't mind Okogie as a starter, it's the only real role he thrives in. Takes the pressure off of Tari & Reed who are too up and down.
Edgecomb and Maxey are nice and exciting but not good enough given the talent in the NBA. Even just in the East Hawks Wizards Celtics and Pistons have much better teams after next year.
