All of the other big time draft picks have had opportunity to get 10-15 fga. I know kp hasn't played many minutes but maybe take the wrap off a bit today and let him go 25-28 maybe 4 6-7 minute qs.
KP is tired out there no way he can go more than 25 minutes did you noticed his missed free throws a shooter lime that doesn't miss so many free throws unless he is fatigued.
He was tired...pretty easy to see.
The bigger issue is that our guards are missing him all the when he is in position for the ball.
Galloway completely missed him on a break, and the pick and pop, a staple of his game in Spain, is not being used properly for him.
He is not strong enough, for the most part, to move calmly to the paint and back an opponent down with his butt, but if you watched the game yesterday, he is constantly cutting into the paint in good position and ready for the ball, and it almost seems like our guards are deliberately ignoring him.
His best bet in the paint is to gains some quick position and be given the ball immediately. He has shown an ability to pass with his back to the basket, but why not get him the ball and work through him more often, or give him a chance to work for a shot in the post before his defender is set.
Am I the only one to see this?
Very strange.
