Clippers1Clifford is building offensive comfort and trust while anchoring himself to defense and rebounding.
“My aggressiveness will come over time as I get more comfortable within the offense and gain more trust from my teammates... just trying to focus on the defense, the rebounding, and taking the right shots when they come to me.”
Hartenstein and Mara are trying to figure out how to play together and maximize their combined minutes.
“Trying to figure out how we can make me and Aday work at the same time, I think that's going to be big for us... I think trying to get us as many minutes as possible, I think playing together is one of those ways you can do that.”
OKC deployed Hartenstein on downhill scorers with A.J. out and the matchup graded well.
“We've used Hart at times on guys like Giannis, guys like Zion... if you have smaller guys on him, he just runs you over. And so we wanted to take a look at that given A.J. being out. And I thought it graded out pretty well.”
Wagler is the second unit's primary ball handler over the last three games.
“The last three games. You know, we've been playing 10, and so playing KD a little bit more to start the game. And then we bring in the second unit and Keaton's the primary ball handler.”
Dick's confidence and minutes are both on the rise from improved play.
“It's really good to see his confidence going up and the minutes are going up as well because he's playing so well and having confidence in himself.”
Lue asking Jones Hachimura and Lopez each to add about two rebounds per game because of small starting lineup.
“We're asking DJ, we're asking Rui, we're asking Brook, all collectively just to, you know, get two more rebounds a game, you know, than you normally average. And we need it because we start so small.”
