Trent Jr needs the shots Beasley.was.getting last year. Giannis feels unstoppable right now, but he needs to get the other gus involved.

Weren't you hyping that dude even before the draft?


Yes.

I wonder what's going on with Brook's offensive touch? Can't be an old thing.


It will be interesting to see if he comes out with much more focus and energy on that end since it is a close game.

Idk. Prince might be the guy that needs more shots. He shot 85% last game and is shooting 80% this game.

It would be a better product if the NBA actually enforced carries, palming, traveling, and moving screens. But they outright refuse to.

So the only solution is to move the line back and completely remove the corner 3. When the 3pt line was added no one actually did the math or figured that players would become skilled enough to make 3s at a comparable rate to any other shot...but it's worth 50% more so the opportunity cost of not shooting a 3 is sooooo insane that it has completely homogenized style of play.

Giannis has been playing Portis level defense so far this year.

You should copy this so you can paste it in later game threads because you'll be saying that a lot this season. Our defense sucks.

We're facing 3 point shooting centers, and suddenly our defense is trash? Shocker

I mean, they're hitting the shots they should. We haven't made it difficult in any way for them..
