Do NOT do the surgery! The nerve thing FIXED his shot
Also this
I generally don't believe in load management, injury prone guys are just going to be injury prone.
But in Mitch's case, I think it makes sense, just limit the minutes/games and chances of him getting injured. Because he's always flying around out there and can land awkwardly any minute.
Unfortunately thats why last season was such a let down, we had everyone healthy and you can never take that for granted. We should have been in the finals 100% if it wasn't for that ridiculous game 1 loss.

For me, this is exactly ideal
137 points on 32 assists and 19/42 from three is ridiculous! Brown has these guys really playing at another level on offense! They are sharing the ball and players a lot faster but very efficient!
KAT's been a different player since the donut in Milwaukee! He's not shooting the three at his normal average but he's been great in the paint! Another Shaq like dunk! And he's not tripping over himself on his drives! Very happy the way he's been playing!
And Josh Hart with another Josh Hart game! 4/5 from three! No hesitation! Deuce finally back on track too! The bench is really producing! 55 points off the bench!!!
And OG and Mitch on defense! That sequence with Mitch put back and block at the other end man!

If he can unlock Yabu, then the picture will be complete!

When his shot hits it's just WET.
Love how quick he gets it off and how he's ready to shoot off catch (great form) - he has his weaknesses BUT it's really too bad we let him go.
Hard to put a trade together that would interest Wolves - who can't afford to lose him. Only way might be to send Mitch and Knicks can't do that given we already have Deuce/Clarkson and Mitch potential impact in playoffs.
Only other way might be with Deuce/Yabu/others and picks and don't think either team does that.

What crossed my mind as Josh was proactively splashing 3's -- we have the new shooting coach(s) and maybe they have found something.
Thought I heard Hart comment a few weeks ago that he is working thru the finger and just doing lots of work with shooting coach.

To be fair - Wolves really seemed disinterested last night....it was a weird 2nd half on their part.
Also - is there another 4-time defensive player of the year that can look so invisible as Gobert often does?

And also - the substitutions thru out the game just felt timely/right.
Wasn't screaming at the TV to get someone out -- as guys trailed off during their stint they were subbed out.
Biggest benefactor I believe with the better minute distribution will be our DEFENSE. If guys 1) are rested and 2) know their defense will impact staying on the floor ---- they will tend to grind more.
Last year defensive effort had no role in minutes - top 6 guys knew they were getting +30 minutes regardless if they were asleep defensively.
I think Clarkson opens up Deuce a little bit more this year --- allows him to spot up more and I think Cam tended to ignore Deuce.
Maybe just wishful thinking on my part but I think Clarkson is playing very well and in the flow while also providing creativity and paint touches we need.
No

Not for nothing but Randle's 3pts were not even hitting the net. They went straight thru!
