Game 36: HOU (21-10) @ DAL (12-23)

[Winter]

FWIW it can have to do with the opponent, or available players, or player development being prioritized, or all of those, rather than some sort of permanent change in approach. 

I dont think the plan is for Flagg to be a point GUARD, but I do think Kidd believes he can do a LOT of what Giannis does, given the training. IMO thats where this is headed.

This.... plus no real concern for the won-loss record. 

Flagg gets some experience (and he had a nice bunch of assists), and AD plays well, that's really a win for us rather than the final score.
