Cole is a joke right now with his shooting. Dude has been terrible from range all year.

These are wide open shots. "Bad Mosley offensive sets" I guess.

I mean… yes?

Shots might be open but they aren’t running anything other than isos.

Edit: that was like 5 possessions in a row with Paolo and Franz

This is hard to watch, we must've been playing better before I tuned in. Imma turn it back off for a bit and see what happens.

If only Pacers made some threes this would be ugly already

This offense is just hard to watch…
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.

Guys can't hit open shots AND the offense has no flow or actual purpose to it. Both things can be true.

This should be a 15 point lead. They hold pacers to a poor shooting percentage but shoot poor themselves. This offense just doesn't work. When u compound that with fouling, this is the type of game u get.

My point is that when your two best players are iso players, that's how the offense is usually run. I think people are just thinking we can run around Harris and Houstan like Ray Allen and Harris has never been that player.

This record is truly a mirage. We’ve had an unbelievably favorable schedule over the past few weeks. The schedule remains pretty weak so a playoff berth isn’t in any serious jeopardy, but these boys are getting clocked in the first round. I’d rather have a lotto pick, although Weltman will **** that pick just like he did with Howard & Black.

The energy to this game looks off to me. Look a bit indecisive and scared in the half court. Hope the pressure isn't getting to them mentally.

Cole should be banned from shooting more than some fixed numbers of shot per game.

Well Paolo has 4 points, don't have many guys to compensate for it

I'm sorry, but wanting to be in the lotto every year is a weird mentality.
