Took out Lively for Kleber, banking on Maxi spreading the floor and hitting his shots.
At the expense of rim protection and rebounding.
Glad Kidd came to his senses and put back Lively in.
I don’t know. I thought he adjusted by starting Lively second half. And then he played the kid almost the entire half. Sure, he got pulled for a breather in the 4th. But he came back in for the close. Not sure even a 19 year old has the stamina to perform without a blow.
Pessimism doesn’t make you smart, just pessimistic.
