The +/- Thread

It’s really remarkable from game 1 to 14 how much essegian has bought into the defensive concepts and just the effort needed to stay on the floor. Goes 0 for 6 from 3 on 6 pretty good looks but yet his biggest impact on the game may have been how he effects spacing just by being on the floor.

This is so important and most people wouldn’t realize it. His ability to spread the floor and keep a defender attached to him is crucial for Brice and Rollie. Keisei was able to do the same, but Connor has already shown he can improve as a defender! He continues to be a better get that I thought he would be.

It's called gravity (aka the Steph Curry effect).

Jacob Bigelow made a comment on the X as to why Fred kept Connor in the game if wasn't making shots. I replied for the same reason Fred didn't take Keisei out last year.
