1. Re-live is nice. Started watching two hours delayed and still nearly caught up with the final whistle just by skipping all the dead ball situations.
2. Whole game I was thinking, win or lose, it must be nice to be in the EAST. That Detroit team cannot shoot at all. Outside of Cunningham and Duren not much there. Ausar is no Amen.
3. Guess Dwight Powell (and Daniel Gafford) ain´t all that against a good frontcourt. Detroit rammed it down their throat.
4. Cooper Flagg will be fine, but there could be a Franz Wagner ceiling to his game (imho), because he does not seem to have great natural shooting touch. He´s a ridiculously hard worker, as you can tell by his perfect free throw shooting. As such he´ll train himself to become a good 3pt shooter. So he´s a pretty fail safe player, but he is likely not a one man wrecking crew. He will need a partner at least on his level.....
5. In other words....TANK now.
Last checked, Dallas didn't shoot the ball particularly well either outside of DLo. I have to give some credit to Detroit's defense. They are a physical team.
