KAT puts up like 35/12 last night has over 10 points in the 4th quarter and D'Lo goes into hero mode down the stretch and Ant fumbles the ball into a turnover when they need a bucket the most.
I've always thought it's so unfair to players about the "will to win" and "empty stats" it's just kind of a weird way to punish someone for an awful franchise. KG and KLove didn't turn out to be empty stat players as soon as they left, just turned out the TWolves never had any idea how to build a team. This is the first time in his 7 years that he has talent around him but that talent is ball hogging and have no idea how to win either. You put that guy around someone like Luka who can actually lead and those empty stats conversations stop the same way they have with the dozens of players who have left bad situations for good ones.
That being said....if KP and Brunson play the way they have I honestly don't know what to think. KP is a much better defender than KAT and Brunson is carrying us most nights. (Also, I have the feeling would be more like KP+Brunson+Green+picks tbh).
