Think it will because they had to put him at PG and run point and it wasn't natural for him. That Tyus Jones signin was big for em I dont know how they got that nikka but it allow KD and Book to be who they are and not try to run more point. Turnovers killed em last season and now they got Tyus and Monte Morris who were both top 3 in assist to turnover ratio.

:ohhh: I DIDNT EVEN KNOW
THEY GOT TYUS JONES.

THATS HUGE.
THEY NEEDED A PG IN THE WORSE WAY

This nikka been sleep. That's been one of the biggest signings recently. Game changer if there was one of late since the end of SL.

Steve Kerr made this harder than it needed to be

Ant and KD woulda been 4 of the best 5 but

1- Keepint KD off the bench

2- playing Bron too many minutes (granted he probably can’t tell Bron no), also Dereck white too many minutes. Which is what kept Ant from getting PT the last 2. Ant had like 10 in 8 minutes today. Low key he was headed to leading them in scoring overall for the Olympics

Tatum has been better than KD & Bron for the last 3 seasons

Tatum was the 2nd leading scorer on the last Olympic team

And ppl think he's the 11th best player on this team, FOH

The disrespect is crazy

I'm not taking nikkas like Bam, Book, Ant, Jrue, White, etc over him

The plan should've been to start him so he'd be ready to lead the team in 2028

If I'm him, I absolutely pass on LA

France gonna smoke the US in 4 yrs without him
so you gotta massage his balls so he can be honored to back for his third olympic team?

You know how much worse it woulda been had Kawhi been healthy?
