Tate’s defense is GREAT! However, he needs to be our primary 3. At 6-4’ he’s not a strong enough rebounder or rim protector to be a full-time 4.
The three pg line up was dumb. Like your goal as a coach at this point of this franchise's situation is development of young top talent. Taking time away from KPJ practicing pg future to DJ ****ing Augustine who is 33 years old is just extremely dumb. DJ Augustine has nothing to do with the long term plans for this franchise. I just don't get the logic. What's worse is that since Wall already dominates the ball, when he sits, THAT is the time when you need to concentrate on KPJ handling the ball. That's when his opportunities are the most but no, put out a 3 pg line up and have KPJ standing around. Smart. Very smart.
Love this leadership by Wood. You'd hardly hear that kind of accountability from Silas or Wall. Definitely will never hear it from Stone, he never makes mistakes. Every decision he has made has been the right one.
