I am a little behind and watching the second quarter but why is it that ESPN refuses to spell Paolo’s name correctly?

Jett with 19 pts on 12 shots. Also, how does he have 0 assists? I thought he made a few plays that led to buckets

Jett can produce right away. AB is a project unfortunately. Not mad about the AB pick though, basically none of the guys outside of Brandon Miller projected in the top 10 can shoot.

He's passing but guys don't make their shots.

I'm not sure if that's just the gangsta stroll in his natural walk. 8-)

I believe they both can contribute right away. AB’s shooting woes are well documented but he is legit. I can see him making an immediate impact, as long as he is not on the court with a whole bunch of none shooters.

yeah, that is always my internal reaction to that complaint. Despite the draft class being considered A+ tier, no one in the top 10 was a projected *immediate shooter besides miller and hendricks. Miller has looked rough and Hendricks has not shot well from 3 in summer league. Takes time.

Jett should have an assist now with that pass for the 3. #jettassistwatch

All of the reasons why I couldn't get onboard the AB train during the draft are coming out now.

Must. Practice. Patience. Grrrr

I got news for ya, we were going to keep Fultz anyway.

These shots at the end of the season gave Weltman another excuse to evaluate :lol:

Outside of Jett and Black, it's like the Washington Generals

surely one of our guards is going to make our shooting coaches look like they know what they are doing...right...

I just don't really see meaningful contributions to wins from either guy on a healthy Magic roster. Which is a bit disappointing. Which means development is needed but I dunno this season seems to be about trying to compete for wins.

Execution is ridiculous.

Jett has handles that Suggs wish he had.
