JI comes into the game and the defensive energy just changes. Learn Mose.

Sometimes I don't love his game, but bottom line you need a player like Paolo. He's doing what Tatum does, Tatum just has a much better team

Players tend to make a jump in season 4, imagine if Paolo does it next season

If they called fouls on Cole like they do on Pritchard, he wouldnt be such a defensive weakness. Theyre both small guys but only one of them get to get away with initiating contact on defense

Pritchard is a bit more discrete about it at times bit still

I wouldn't expect him to shoot 83% from the field and 100% from deep all season :D

Our offense is so jacked. 3 guys literally don’t move for an entire possession, Paolo has the ball, WCJ is just sitting there setting a back screen for 8 seconds and not a single Magic player moves, Paolo gets fouled on a iso jumper? Wtf

I think the jump should have happened during this season. The season missed him up. I really can see Paolo winning scoring titles.

Paolo is built for the playoffs. Cold blooded, he only really gets going when things get hot.
