Great write up Dan! Thank you
I think KL has it right with Powell. He started because Rick knew he wouldn’t blow defensive assignments. He can switch and play team ball. You know he will bring the effort needed. Playing Powell was more of a tone setting move to make sure we play smart and together defensively.
Powell just doesn’t have it physically to contribute offensively. The lob game scoring is too easy for Luka and the team to go without. WCS getting that going early in the first and second half vs Houston made a huge difference. Without easy buckets our guys start pressing themselves and can’t get into a groove offensively.
