Dylan Harper led the game in boards in a game Wemby and KAT played way more minutes than him. Everybody knows about the synthesis between his physical tools and slashing + finishing, but his ancillary toolkit is entirely unreal. Insane in the lanes, rebounding off the charts, can handle, can play off-ball, can guard the other team’s best guard straight-up, and a VERY willing passer. An absolute specimen. If he can just get the three-pointer to at least 34% consistently while developing some semblance of a mid-range counter, then we’re just quite frankly looking at one of the most positive, bulletproof guard archetypes ever.
Again, no post-2014 guard peak besides Curry is beyond his reach. He can fly as high as he wants to.
20 year old playing in the biggest game of his life after he’s spent years working towards this. Let’s cut out the toxic masculinity shit, emotion is okay
My thoughts on game 1:
- Wolves have been & will continue to be a matchup nightmare.
- Mitch should have gone to the Wemby handoff much earlier.
- Castle cannot foul out.
- We need CB back.
- Someone has to step up and take on the Julius Randle matchup.
- TJ (love him) was due.
