re: If I told you preseason I'd have more confidence in Herb hitting 3s than Trey...

It just shows that Herb is putting in work and Trey is slumping and lacking confidence. I'm sure things will revert back to the mean at some point, but with Herb settling in around 38 percent and Trey getting back to close to 40.

Honestly, goin' in to start of season, I woulda been very happy with Herb improving to shooting 35%-36% on 3s for the year. Now...at this point, I don't know WHAT to think !!

He's getting MUCH more confident goin' to the basket & has started to figure out that he can, on his own, just turn the corner off the dribble & continue on the hoop. Will only get better at this as it is still a new development. He's learning how to play offense "on the fly"...in the NBA. NOT...an easy thing to do.

In the "wth was that?" category...I'm pretty sure he knocked down an off-hand baby hook, coming across the lane. In 6 years or so, I've never seen that one. The guy is only gonna get better...offensively...as his confidence grows.

BTW: As someone mentioned earlier...I agree that this was maybe the first time this year that I have thought Herb was a bit gassed. Showed a bit...coming down the stretch.
