I still think we're going to have these inconsistencies with the whole squad back at full health. The shooting on this team is beyond terrible and until Magic/Pelinka addresses that we're going to have inconsistent performances. We play the two worse teams in the league the next two games and I have no faith we'll win those game because, again, we can't shoot.

Depends too much on his behind-the-back move, but yeah, talented. I'd love to see him work out with McHale in the off-season. And Lonzo with Nash, for shooting. But Nash is tied up isn't he?

Mo has skills AND motor. And he has the fire in the belly, eye of the tiger. He has all the talents needed possibly becoming great. His handles are very good for his size and age. Top notch. Shooting form is perfect. If he stays injury free and works his ass off, he has a fair shot at becoming a starting four or five or a combo on a ring winning team.

Like with all rookies, Mo needs to get a stronger lower base, core, upper body; also a quicker first step. Rebounding brutality and ownership attitude will come with the years.

I really miss BroLo’s boxing (clearing) out. Take a note, Mo. He is similarly huge, can spread his arms and bend his knees and claim (clear out) the paint when a shot goes up.

I have high hopes for Wagner next year, think he will earn BIG minutes. In his mind, he’s not here to sit on the bench.
