Bembry will also thankfully take all of McCaw’s minutes. He’s just a better player.
On the other hand, Boucher is playing himself out of the rotation this preseason. He has not looked good at all.
Our center position is really weak.
One thing I’m starting to notice is FVV and Siakam have poor on court chemistry. In particular, FVV doesn’t know when to give up the fukking ball. He always dribbles himself into trouble and rarely makes the right read. I was surprised to see him find Siakam in the dunker’s spot on one play and I think TD making a baseline cut on another. Those are very uncharacteristic of his typical tunnel vision. The fact that FVV takes and makes a lot of ill-advised pull-up threes hides a lot of his weaknesses as an offensive player. I hope we move him.
As for Siakam, dude has zero confidence in the midrange or the wing and does not want initiate from either position. Dude needs the whole side cleared out to be effective at anything beyond threes. He has to learn to slow down, be patient and to let plays develop instead of forcing the ball into crowds.
