00:00he played a lot in this game too a lot more than 32 minutes i you said 10 i thought he was gonna

00:20play 20 minutes 20 minutes and like he he did look really stiff out there at first and then

00:25after he made that dunk it did look like he was like you know feeling it back to himself but then

00:30he kept missing a whole bunch of shots and they said on the tv broadcast multiple times and i was

00:36like i just don't agree with that they're like he could get away with that at duke not in the nba

00:41and there was at least three different shots that i was like that is literally the exact same move

00:46in defense that he saw in duke and usually he made that shot so i'm not disputing that he's going to

00:51need to get better at shot creation but there were a couple particular times i was like that's not an

00:56nba thing he just missed the shot like he had the exact same move that i saw him do at duke eight

01:01million times and then he just missed the shot but you you mentioned something you saw because the

01:07shooting was was atrocious from him last night but you did see other things including in the final

01:13minute the block combination and then the assist out for the three that you're like okay there was

01:18there was another one and i don't know if it was a nimhard shot that flag tipped in that i just

01:24thought was beautiful the way like he was just in the right spot and a lot of times last night it

01:29just seemed like he because of the way he thinks the way he sees the game he's just in the right spot

01:35and that's kevin that's where i started getting excited because i think clay is going to hit that

01:40and knock down a shot i think you know guys around him i think pj will knock down a shot that wide open

01:46you know i think these things are going to happen but how does he fill in the spaces and the cracks

01:51whenever something's missing he can be a good slasher he's around the basket there are a lot of

01:56he has a great skill set that i'm i'm excited to see more of
