Rui Hachimura Discussion: Huge Buckets

oh no one was a bone bruise that kept him out for an unexpectedly long time.

 

Excited to see him get out there tonight.

 

They needed a 3 and D wing but ended up getting a pure scorer. Maybe just as good for the team: if he can stay engaged defenses have to account for him more than I realized. You can't really put a weak or smaller defender on him with his size: he's got little Melo in his game

 

His mid range game and pullups remind me of Kawhi. Nice to have a talented wing out there. Can't wait until him, AD, and Bron are out there more together.

 

They mentioned nba app crashed in Japan because of his debut

 

If Ham can ever get his rotations right, Rui should be able to allow LeBron to play less minutes each game.
He looked solid.

 

There was a moment when Rui contained a driver baseline and then AD just ate up the space in the key, trapping the guy under the basket. It was a peek of how good this defense can be. Rui's been an average defender to date but still has a ton of potential. He's far from a 0 on this end and I think he stands to improve a lot while on this squad. Washington is that much of a dumpster.

Offensively, I knew he was productive but his game is a lot smoother and developed than I thought. His first step is very nice.

 

In contrast, Nunn had 12 pts In 22:03 mins 5/9 FG 2/5 from 3.


Looks like Miami Nunn is back!



So why did we make the trade?

 

Trouble maker!

Yeah Kendrick had a real nice identical dunk like that for us a few days ago. He’ll get more room there to play and get his game expanded again like Kuz did.

 

Au contraire and …. what, was my post immediately above this chopped liver? He did one just like it 2 or three games ago desperately trying to keep from having his knee and a** shipped out.

 

I don’t remember any Nunn dunk as a Laker. Maybe you saw his Miami highlights?

 

OK someone help me out here, it was literally in the past week.

 

This one?
