Crazy what happens when he doesn’t settle for 3’s and gives effort.

He obviously has tools. He just only decides to use them one a week.

Hopefully he improves on that this RS and we get this Scottie more often.
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

That’s the beauty of a 3 level scorer, that scoring gravity makes executing plays in the clutch much easier.

makes all the talk over the past few weeks even funnier.

But that last minute or so was what they got BI for. The tough 3 make and then the gravity helps set up the dagger.

they look regular season ready

Scottie can do this all day to teams with virtually 0 defence at the rim or wing position. We paid him to do that against good teams on a consistent basis. It won’t be this easy like this against competent teams but that’s the mindset he needs to bring.

What’s beautiful about it is that BI wasn’t involved for most of the game. It’s good to know you can rely on him in those situations when he hasn’t particularly been effective earlier.

He was very efficient with his shot selection, think he just wanted the other guys to get into a rhythm against a crappy team. Good team leader stuff.
