Very hard to be efficient when you are 1 / 5.

there will be good nights and mediocre nights as expected but I can applaud him for shooting the looks with a solid stroke.

Goga is useless, screens are nice, but we can't play 4 on 5 on offense with this lineup, Knicks shoot jumpshots anyway, his rim protection is not required

He is streaky and that is my worst criticism of him on the offense.

He misses a free throw...ha.

Sure but he is also missing some open shots that he’s created for himself too.

Down two. Keep missing the free ones

I understand where you are coming from. Just the last of my concerns. Long term it is definitely something he need to get better on.

Like serious something is wrong with this team mentally. We have to be the worst team in the league at making consecutive free throws.

4 missed FTs in a 2 point half and lots of missed wide open 3s.

Our guards collectively shot 3/15 so far. Not bad!

Is 1-6 “good” or “mediocre?”

And who gives a **** how his stroke looks?

60% is just so bad.

Pretty sure Jett could carve up the same role that Houstan is playing.

Goga having one of those games where he's playing like he's a 6 footer.

Also watched late, is Black not playing today?

I think from a volume standpoint he is our best volume shooter. Pitiful as that sounds.
