He's got the scoring guard mentality

Paolo seems to get striped a ton when he brings the ball low on his drives.

Boring game. Two bad teams

I know Paolo is struggling from 3 but he's gotta take the open ones. Him not shooting is killing us.

14 points in the second quarter. Wow.

the last possession was so stupidly bad, instead of going 2 for 1, lets just run the clock, get shot clock violation and scored on...

I'm probably not the only one who feels this way, but I'd rather Paolo, Franz and Suggs play well and the Magic lose than those guys play poorly and the Magic win.

At least at this stage.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But for a young team, they are gonna RISE HARD in the standings

If the game is close, I could see them erupting for a big finish

Only if their shots are wet

WCJ and Paolo play like crap: nothing

Fultz doesn't take a 3: board melts down

Yeah, I've been wanting to see more low post touches and he's doing that tonight but he has to confidently take the open 3's.

I rather see them playing well and contribute to winning.

He’s a little better now. Doesnt chuck as much prior to the talk they had as a team early this year

Paolo is missing every 3... and I'm not worried about his jumper. He's a hooper that will work on it.

I thought the last one was money. The basketball gods felt otherwise.

If you don't see any criticism of WCJ and Paolo you must be on a different board. Maybe Fultz gets MORE criticism, but there's good reasons for that.

Anyway, if Paolo can't shoot he'll never be a real 1st option. He can't shoot for crap right now.

Yeah I don’t get all that excited when Moe Wagner, Fultz or even WCJ carry us to a win.

That said, there will come a point where I’ll be desperate for the team to have the kind of ‘depth’ where any guy can step up on any night to help the team win. This just isn’t that season for me.

Franz is aggressive from three tonight
