What's the worst thing you ever heard a fan say to you or a teammate?

Do you think that Wimbanyama spent too much time beyond the three-point line in Game 1?

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

And if you and I expect him to make the adjustment.

We saw this before.

Game one against the Minnesota Timberwolves in the second round of the playoffs.

Wibinyama took nine threes.

I think he went 0 for 9.

And the very next game, he got right back to the paint and the rest was history.

They won.

You know, they would dominate throughout the rest of the series.

And so I expect Wimby to correct his mistakes, two for nine from three.

That's not where he wants to be.

Obviously, at 7'4", he has the ability to shoot the three-point shot, but he's 7'4".

He has to understand the other team wants you to take nine, 10, 11 threes.

Unless you're hot, unless you're gonna go seven of nine, six for nine, at 7'4", you shouldn't take nine threes because your superpower

is that you're 7'4".

You've got to make teams feel that you're 7'4", and that starts from 15 feet on end in the pan.

You know, you played with Dirk Nowitzki in Dallas, won a championship with Dirk.
