re: Pels Game 64

It's why I'm not clamoring for more Hawkins or Ryan minutes, our role players are shooting the 3 at a decent clip without them while not sacrificing the defensive intensity that we would have to do if either of them were on the floor for 17-25 minutes a game.

Hawk and Ryan can get off quality 3-pt shots in a contested environment -- that's what they can do that Herb, Jose, and Naji can't.

But the much-improved version of Zion Williamson that we've had lately is so good that he can create wide-open shots for Herb, Jose, and Naji ... and they are knocking them down.

So, we don't need Hawk and Ryan to create open 3pt shots.
