uh coach so first off uh just your your thoughts on the performance night particularly in contrast to uh the first game yeah I loved our start I thought last game we didn’t start the game the right way with the right intention we talked about it today I thought our guys responded very well I loved our approach to the game and it was a lot of different guys throughout the night you know a lot of different contributions from different players uh can you talk about some of those so let’s go down the line so Chris what do you think about Chris’s game tonight he’s just solid he he he does what he does you know guarded uh council at times very well um I love the shots he took what six rebounds you know he uh just does a lot of different things for us that don’t even really show up in in the STS um so he was physical and he got it going a little bit Donovan seemed like he had a better night tonight and also some some really big plays late there defensively to to help you guys get the win yeah I think he was only credited for what three blocks but it felt like he had more you know he altered so many shots and then he prohibits so many shots he discourages them from taking shots so I thought his defensive presence was really good staying deep in that pain protecting the room what about his playmaking you five assists tonight is that something you kind of saw like what you saw from him too yeah absolutely I think he’s a very diverse player he can do a lot of different things we’ve talked about that a couple times so his playmaking you know as a hub for our offense is very effective what went into that decision making to put him on the ball there and just how how how nice is that to see hit that payoff yeah you know his size on the ball it’s really hard for the passers to find passing angles so it’s something we like to do it’s Choice like first game ever in the NBA environment like how do you like his play and what improvements do you want to see from him through this summer game he was awesome he was awesome he stayed ready you know you never know when your number is going to get called so he was ready to play the game he obviously made some shots but I really liked his physicality and uh chasing after loose balls and making those plays that don’t necessarily show up in the stats what achievements you want to see from him through playing through the yeah I think the more he plays the more comfortable he’ll get with the offense and just understanding our schemes but he plays so hard it makes up for the mistakes that he does make thank you Bryce is well tonight really seems like the scoring pop was was really there yeah you know I just think every day he’s with us he’s getting more and more comfortable and confident just learning his teammates and learning our system J it seemed like after that first quarter things kind of came to a again but the third quarter you kind of had the eruption couple back to back dunks you had cayan kind of going back and forth to Bona was was that just something in kind of the flow of the game or is that just you guys wanted to see a little bit more intensity a little bit more energy coming out of the half I mean we always want energy I think that’s just the flow of the game you know especially this environment it’s up and down game it’s an exciting game um but nothing intentional out of that
