If Kerr had used Lamb's chances last season to focus on developing Kuminga, would he have played at the level he has today?Against the Wizards, Kuminga became the biggest bright spot in the Warriors, playing 27 minutes, Kuminga hit nine of 11 shots from beyond the three-point line, and handed over 22 points, five rebounds, three assists and one steal.
In terms of the efficiency of the offensive single alone, Kuminga can be said to be the highest presence on the team, mainly because most of his scoring is concentrated near the penalty area, air cuts, secondary attacks, fast breaks, counterattacks, these are all things that we can often see Kuminga do on the court. And it is worth noting that Kuminga now obviously has more ability to handle the ball under the basket, and after getting the ball, he is no longer blindly alone, and can cooperate with his teammates for a second or even multiple times, which is also very gratifying for Warriors fans.
Kuminga did not waste his talent and vitality, he finally found a suitable style of play in the Warriors, in the post-game interview, Kerr also praised Kuminga, thinking that this is the best period of Kuminga's career, he can not only find a splash on the court, but also be able to maintain a strong willingness to work in the frame, Kerr's words also made many Warriors fans linger, if he did not reuse the mediocre Lamb last season, but used more opportunities to cultivate Kuminga, then Xiao Ku would have been able to evolve to the current level?
It has to be said that Kerr did give Lamb and Jerome too many opportunities last season, but instead ignored the development of young players of Kuminga and Moody, if he could pay more attention to and trust these people, maybe the Warriors would not have the embarrassing situation of no one available in the playoffs. So do you think Kuminga can break out of the confinement this time and soar into the sky?
