Fox and Monk are going to be a challenge, and he'll probably end up switching onto Derozan some, we'll see how those two games go, on that front. Golden State is going to test him too. If he can hold his own in those games, Max might keep himself out of trade talks. Toklat will be back saying " See? I told yall!!"
man, these next few are huge, tbh. if we lose all three, it's like detonation time. if we won all three, i'd think we'd righted the ship, tbh.
I'm rooting for Max...we gambled on him this past summer and up until recently, he was basically a dud. I think if Christie can string together some games where he's containing the opposing guards and he's hitting open shots (9-11pts) and 3's, then he may have found himself into the starting lineup for good. We've tried DLO, Reddish, Knecht, and Gabe...and now it's Max Christie's turn to prove that he's a starter.
nice highlights! Has to do good for his confidence to be giving an all world offensive talent like that some issues scoring. Big props! We need this kid doing this every night.
Really cool. Gotta watch this guy a lot more. I thought he was playing Ja really well but Ja also looked kind of off to me. Maybe Max had a lot more to do with that than I saw. 6 for 21 speaks for itself.
Really impressive work by Max. He's in for a tougher assignment Thursday, so I want to see how he handles a similar guard but with better range and not as predictable as drive-at-all-costs Ja.
