    Yes, I want Dame to avg at least 10 assists a game, with the shooters we have he is totally capable of that

    Imagine a defensive lineup of:

    Nurkic
    Nance
    Simmons
    Powell
    Simons/Dame

    If Dame just did 22/10 I'd be very happy.

    I guess coaches are just stubborn sometimes

    Dame has been ice-cold all year so far; CJ is lighting the Pacers up right now. But the Pacers are still hedging their defense toward Dame and leaving CJ plenty of space. Doesn't make much sense

    Yes, it’s also scientifically better for your 3 point % because it uses your upward motion and requires less force from the arms and wrist.

    would be awesome, 20 efficient pts (plus or minus a bit and 10 assists and we could be pretty darn good

    Not overrated as a defender. That’s for damn sure.

    Larry Nance is better than both Nurkic and Covington.

    This unit is the weak link on defense. The 2nd unit came in and did there job. Then this unit almost loose a 16 point lead.
