Not all the time, but he was definitely the problem tonight. Sac has too many good shooters to play drop and Nurk isn't mobile enough (or has the stamina) to constantly show hard and recover. Metu did a better job, so did KD.
Same…. Hahaha.
Hopefully our ******* coach realizes this and utilizes it again!
And Gordon was virtually unplayable before the 4th quarter. He was TERRIBLE.
Against certain teams absolutely but not all teams play fast like the Kings they are little outlier, like the old 7 seconds or less Suns back in the day!
Not just this game neither - Gordon been slumpin - but Vogel showed a lot of faith in the guy and then he hits those crucial 3s
Sorry but without Nurk's 15 boards we wouldn't have made the comeback. Maybe he shouldn't be in the game late against a fast team, but he has value in other ways.
all teams can’t and won’t score like the Kings either! Of course you can’t go small all the time but you can mix it up when you need speed and traditional not working! Hopefully Vogel remembers this and incorporates it into terrible 4th quarters moving forward!
I said as much….
Its not a five you run together at all times but definitely can be a closing 5 if you need it!
A few of their guys hit some contested 3s that’s what makes it tough when you play de ent to good D then they make crazy shot anyway. They definitely need to be more consistent on D but they did at times and it still didn’t stop them.
