Not feeling good about this one but I hope I'm wrong... worried about a 3pt barrage from NOP.

F-Wagner has dipped below 20 ppg for the season.


He stopped doing his signature Euro-step for whatever reason. Oh, and he can’t shoot 3s. Is he regressing in year 3?

That's what I'm worried about... over-helping to stop Zion and giving up a ton of 3's because we can't contain Zion.

No, we look precisely like we look against a .500 team.
