Tyler 32', 26 pts 9/13 (4/6), 5, 6, 1 (3). That was the scoring.
The "Heat" again got no O from K-Low 36', 4 pts 2/10 (0/4), 6 reb, 5 asts, 1 stl, 1 blk, (2). Sorry, those aren't a starting PG's stats.
Duncan continued ice cold shooting 26', 10 4/14 (2/11).
Rounding out the starters PJ Tucker was once again nothing but a space heater, 23', 2 points 1/5) (0/4), 5 reb. That's not a starting PF.
I don't know, the team is 4-1. The starting unit is clearly not broken so why fix it but three of the parts are unusually weak. It's been Jimmy, Bam, and Tyler off the bench--they are the reason for the nice record. Through the four games he has played Kyle Lowry is averaging 5.8 ppg on 30% shooting and 5.8 apg in ~32'/pg while getting paid $26.9M/year. There is no way to envelope that in some Kyle Lowry Effect in the ether, that is shocking. PJ Tucker in five games 5.8 ppg, 5.3. Duncan Robinson, you have to think this is just a slow start, but the longer it lasts, the more concerning it is for a starter: In 28.7'/game Duncan is averaging 9.5 ppg on 35.1% (31.3%). You have $53M invested in three starters who are not producing.
It's a stellar start for the team but is not sustainable.
