I remember yelling at the screen telling them “quit shooting 3s”. Man on man have times changed.

How old were they when we were winning? How old are Franz, Paolo, Suggs, etc?

I’m going to assume they were all older than Franz, Paolo and Suggs.

In 2008 (first year Rashard played for us):
Rashard was 29
Hedo was 29
Jameer was 26
Pietrus (joined in 2008-2009) was 27
Dwight was 23

Now, our current core:
Paolo is 20
Franz is 21
Suggs is 21
WCJ is 23
And we'll be adding 1 or two more 19-20 year olds.

It's gonna take time.

Modern NBA. Maybe we'll get there someday.

I just want them to shoot 3s like all the other teams. I used those 4 names because they were good 3 point shooters. Lol.

I appreciate Paolo for trying.

Me too. Hopefully we draft shooters. Brandon Miller and Gradey Dick would help A LOT.

Too many missed opportunities. Orlando did it to themselves.

The lack of outside shooting just puts us at such a tiny margin for error in these games.

If this team was a little more seasoned they'd probably comeback and win this game. Very winnable last 10+ minutes.

We are playing with a hand tied behind our back. It's a drain physically and mentally.

Yep. Basically need to draft shooters and sign vets who can hit open 3s. This teams biggest weakness
