About the win um I mean balanced play you know uh except for you know really I mean our second our second half defense wasn’t as good as our first half but our offense was good the whole game and um you know a bunch of guys played well we

Got great bench play but the ball movement um the unselfishness you know the Inside Out play it’s it’s good good NBA basketball um one of those bench guys just in here probably not played as much as he thought he was going to OKC after what he did Europe career Stand Out

Particular just his I mean his awareness you know all the stuff that you can’t teach you know he knows where everybody is on the floor um obviously he’s a terrific passer pick and role player um so also you know he’s got size you know he’s big you know some of those passes

Maybe other guys can see but don’t have the ability to you know make the play so um oh he was yeah I thought all four I mean we again a bunch of guys played well but those four guys off the bench were terrific Team 2 just only

Connection yeah no no know and he and he did it more off picking rolls um where he was good he made some good decisions in the paint um and Hope that’s stuff that we can build on it’s just yeah I mean which is going to happen some just

Because you know it it’s it’s uh you know he’s comfortable defending on the perimeter you know so uh you know those again we’ve talked about it before right those centers are just like Grant did for us it’s a different game out there when you’re playing Five out it’s just there’s so

Much more room and uh you know so you know it it makes sense to have Grant out there defensively also just because he’s comfortable defending and all the rotations on the perimeter huge yeah on the glass yeah with his help with his talk yeah he’s very smart uh

Very tough you know now he played I mean he played a great allaround game coach not a allot of teams are sellers at the deadline and actually seem like improve I’m just curious obviously just one game with these new guys well I mean the thing is this is

That um we haven’t even practiced and you saw the ball movement um and uh again so we’re uh you know I mean for me it potentially looks like this you know like the two things you want in this league is one is you know smart high IQ guys um I think

We added a bunch of those and then also I think there’s a very much a veteran presence that they they’re going to bring to our locker room you know those guys have you know obviously Seth you know Grant’s played in the finals he’s played deep into the playoffs um other

Times uh you know Vaso was obviously had a huge career um in uh in Europe like you said and DB you know is a veteran player I mean really he too was in the middle of you know the biggest run in the game was really in

That third quarter which he was a big part of so I think that we have veterans who um you know again have a good IQ and and um there’s certainly a lot to like and just watch the film and try to build on no quite yeah yeah and and that’s

Also in the fourth quarter you know playing Five out with Grant out there and we did get a lot of good penetration plays at the me know miles had a couple really terrific drives and finishes uh well Trey had the good the kick out to kick out for the three off

Uh I think Cody had a drive and then he and he touched it to Trey drove and we got an open three so yeah look the five out stuff it’s it’s a different thing to deal with defensively so you know that’s that’s one of the things uh that Grant

Will bring to our team
