For the GB crowd who thinks Miller becomes a better player than Franz in that one thread. I really like Miller, he is super smooth but thats gonna be super hard for him. I have my doubt he will ever become the defender Franz is & he will never be the passer/playmaker. He has to become a much better scorer than Franz while having problems creating his own shot to offset all the things Franz is better at. Don't see it.

Solid W.

It was fun seeing Franz hit spinning middies and Jalen just pulling from 30 ft with 14 seconds left (still a bad shot/decision though). On the other hand we still just shoot 29.5% from 3 :lol:

Oh well I guess it's good we can still kill teams without shooting well, I guess our defense is starting to improve a bit again, let's see how it holds against better teams.

They aren't playing the right way IMO, it was ISO ball at it's worst.
As much as I wanted Ball in the offseason, I wonder if he can play the right way? and it trickled down from there.

Nice blowout win, especially considering it's the NBA Cup and point differential is quite important there. But part of me wishes we had more close games, most of our games this season has been blowouts. Good to see Franz doing great again, he is so good at punishing teams which lack size and rim protection.

If we did maybe just a play or two because I didn’t remember seeing it at all.

I think Pascal is also. That was the whole subject of the locked on Pacers show today. I believe he averages 20/6.5/4.5. The show was about how those numbers almost always make the all-star team.

Pascal doesn’t meet the 1.5 steals per game. He is at 0.8.
