Once Sasha gets the defensive staples down, he'll be in a much better spot. Looked good with the starters, but I feel like during the season we'll see him run that second unit with monk, lyles, davion, and mcgee. Scary scoring potential there. Malik just needs to get his head out of his ass and make smarter/safer passes. Idk what is up with kvon either. Kessler edwards also looked real solid in his few minutes last night.
Again, really enjoyed this breakdown! I am definitely learning more about how defense is supposed to be played just through watching you both. What I am seeing is that Sasha likely will never be a great defender, but he has the IQ to be a good team defender. He does seem to be very similar to Keegan Murray last season at this time.
Sasha definitely has some work on defense. Schemes and fundamentals need work. His post game is better than I thought, can’t wait to set the full arsenal. Hopefully his defense is just good enough to allow him to stay in the floor. Foot work is awful on defense lol.
Put greece/bulgarian subtitles and you will get another 10 000 viewers at each video with him. Don't have doubts in your boy. He will surprise you all. He's extremely hard working, focused and elegant player.
More film breakdown content like this please.
LOL. Preseason game #2. Boom or bust? I go boom overall by mid-season.
We also did a breakdown on Chris Duarte vs. Lakers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=go9O1If6JCw
Preseason bball always a little chaotic with players trying to make rosters and coaches experimenting with new lineups/rotations. Vezzy's efficiency stands out and he seems comfortable out there. I love his confidence and maturity. Should have a bright career!
Very good analysis. Sasha slowly will become better on defense as he figures out his role in the rotation and how the team defense will be . He for sure with time will solidify his role in the second unit and no doubt he will be a great help off the bench for this season either as 3 or 4 depending the opponent and their lineup of course. For more, we shall see. But I can already see some improvement here and there. Fingers crossed, West is massively stacked and no margin for error if Kings want to go 1 or several steps further this season.
Duarte was great in this game
I’m excited to see Sasha let them long range bombs go!
