It’s unbelievable, and I’m just happy for him as he tries to find his form and find his rhythm.” reacted the Nets winger for ESPN. “Tonight, I thought he did a good job speaking, leading the attack, leading the team in defense… He was incredible! »
Same satisfaction with Jacque Vaughn, obviously delighted to be able to count on such a volume of play and such a defender off the bench.
” It is really encouraging. He responded well most of the time… He combined well with Nic [Claxton], or without Nic… He accelerated the game, and that’s kind of what we were planning to do with him. If we can continue to improve with him, understand his game, how he can benefit from it and with whom, it is very encouraging. »
This night, Ben Simmons signs his second game in a row with more than ten points, with a perfect 6/6 to shoot. Does he feel better physically, having recently been held back by his knee?
