Yeah pj was really good too, but I give it to Lively. Pj and Lively development is so important to this team. They provide all the little things playing off our stars. Add Luka and Kyrie and we have both offense and defense late. The fifth finisher is interesting. Some games Klay can be a killer when he gets open looks but grimes athleticism is making a strong case. His ability to hit open shots, penetrate off the rotation and better passing are nice pluses ( 5 rebounds and 4 assists) Marshall will get some chances are well. Although it may wind up being grimes or Klay with their shooting late.
