perhaps mercifully, i didn't get to tune into the game, but i saw bufkin started and the box score looked rough. did he look as bad as the stats indicated?
I barely watched so it take with multiple grains of salt but bufkin looked like an NBA player at least which is way more then can be said about most of the team. Lots of shots that looked good which went in an out.
yeah, there's just such limited footage of him playing against nba guys and only so much you can glean from college and g-league. i feel like gabe's minutes are up for grabs, though--i don't think smart can be the only guard in the rotation other than reaves--and i'd like it if bufkin or smith or even bronny can step up and take them.
Bronny seems like the kind of guy for this team - he's willing to work hard, make the right rotation, make the correct swing pass TBH. He'll do what JJ wants and will get others the ball (Bronny one possilble above average to elite skill could be passing) (Everyone knows my preference would be to put theiro in the rotaion)
i just like bufkin because his ceiling is significantly higher than bronny's. substantially taller/longer, already way ahead on shooting to my eye.
