I know it’s been said so many times already but Hardy just has “It.” He’s going to make mistakes, and the D is a work in progress, but he is so great at making space for himself with his dribble and he always steps into his catch and shoot 3’s. They need to find a way to get him consistent minutes which will be tough when Kyrie is back. Exum has been good too. Maxi out should mean more of DJJ at the 4.

Really happy that Kidd rolled with the kids down the stretch. And they delivered! I felt like a proud papa watching it unfold.

Kidd really deserves some credit for that decision.  Hardy down the stretch over THJ and DJJ?  It actually makes sense when you think about how they just kept doubling and beating up Luka the entire night.  Kidd needed another player who could create their own shot.  Hardy wasn’t perfect, but did some smart things.  It was encouraging.

The Rook with 33 minutes?  What.  So that’s what an Offensive Rebound looks like.

Josh is not playing with the same joy as years past.  Contract stuff?  Starting stuff?  Other stuff?
