In pretty much every single facet of the game. What a difference a TRUE post presence who can get his own shot makes to a team.
This win was super impressive. Aaron Brooks looks like the next generation of small guards that Thibs has rejuvenated. McDermott and Mirotic are going to play major roles throughout the year. They are going to be very important in floor spacing. Taj's offensive arsenal just keeps getting bigger and better.
D Rose let the game come to him for the most part. Only took 7 jump shots and all of them were pretty good looks. He really picked up the pace and caused havoc in transition in that 3rd quarter getting some easy looks for the rest of the team and for himself. Really want to see that continue. He seemed a bit hesitant on those 3's. Didn't get his legs quite underneath him. Looked great going to the rim although he missed 2 layups he would normally hit. That will come.
Super impressed from an offensive standpoint with ball movement and execution. Defensively still really good if not better than last year with the 2 7 footers down low. Butler still to come back as well.
This team made a statement tonight that it is a true contender for that crown.
