Goga Bitadze had the best half of his NBA career Sunday in Washington DC, but then didn’t see the court again until late in the third quarter.
“Just a coach’s decision,” head coach Rick Carlisle said.
Yet seconds earlier, his opening statement was also just four words. “Third quarter killed us,” he said, referencing when they were outscored 39-26.
Bitadze is still getting his footing defensively. He’s a good shot-blocker, but he has a slower reaction time and isn’t as versatile when they’re switching. But how does one improve? By getting reps, learning through mistakes and building confidence. Most of all, consistency is key.
