We are not even in front of them on defense but a lot of that is coming off our misses. Shots start to fall we can control the game on the other end better.

Some of the hopeful lumps in Paolos development are hard to deal with at times. I mean too often he has these moments where it seems like he doesn't want to be playing basketball ATM.

These still guys haven't learn yet, particularly Paolo and Suggs to make the simple easy on them.....

I like the ball movement. Shots will eventually drop, but I don’t like the dumb turnovers.

Paolo needs to shoot the basketball.

This is actually how games 3 and 4 started. They literally played the same.

This is games 1 and 2 all over again. They're getting to rim at will and we're missing everthing.

Pretty sure we started 3-11 in our first home game before turning things around. Fingers crossed for a repeat!

God was it a dumb one though. Paolo looks like he's playing an AAU game thus far.
