this is what i was talking about last night

they block off his passing routes hoping they'll get the steal or he'll shoot the 3

but dunn dunn't let the defense dictate the shot dunn takes

KD put up numbers! Trade stock still high.

Dunn seems to be playing with more confidence than ever. He seems to be jumping higher, if that is possible. Maybe it seems that way because he is starting to dominate athletically.

The Rodman (with a shot) comparison is looking more realistic as time goes by.

Where's this team been? Oh yeah, half have been rotting on the bench behind Plumlee and Co. That's the youthful energy that has been missing all season.

 

[Cheesebeef]

It’s beyond bizarre that Dunn got buried on the bench for so long.

I get it, hindsight is 20/20 but the last few games makes the Beal trade all the more frustrating. The blueprint of Book + KD + shooters, atheletic defenders and rim runners is working. Imagine if we used Beal's 50M contract for more of those archetypes...

Imagine if we didn't include Camara in that trade with the Blazers. Dunn and Camara as wing defenders? Ooof. But yea, that Beal trade is gonna go down as one of, if not, the worst trade in franchise history. Beal not waiving his no trade clause upon coming here shoulda been the end of that trade discussion.
