💬 Why It Worked:
Spida's burst and strength + DG’s finesse and vision = pick-your-poison problems for defenses.
When one penetrated the paint, the other spaced and relocated — when traps came, they split and punished.
No other backcourt in the league struck the same balance of handle, IQ, and shot-making.
