Shoutout to KJ for not getting back and KPJ for admiring his work. If both are still on the roster next season then RIP to any hopes and aspirations

TBH not KJ fault.
To people who think this is on the other 3 not mentioned, Yes, Jalen and EG should be sprinting back. But when one person shoots, the next guy closest to the top of the key (in this instance KJ) is the one who is suppose to be sprinting baby to prevent the outlet score.
I hate that I have to explain this but as I spend more time on here I tend to realize many people haven’t played any form of organized ball to know these type of things. Yet I’m the one who knows nothing lol
My takeaway is that everyone has to hustle and grind the entire time they’re on the floor. Jae’Sean is a good example and ironically KJ is part of the “Goon Squad” that does this well alongside Tari and Garuba. It’s just at this juncture of the losing streak, it is clear they’re completely giving up on plays as discouraged easily. Their body language Carrie’s. They should sub anyone that doesn’t run back or blow assignments out entirely as they do in hockey (my only hockey experience is watching Mighty Ducks). If they want to say they’re tired or mentally fatigue then fine, go to the bench until you’re focused and replenished your energy. Effort is one of the few controllables and they shouldn’t compromise especially with as much talent and athleticism we have and as much experience we lack to makeup for our youth in any way.
TLDR: Play hard or get off the court!
