Correct call but man I've gotta say this team has been struggling so bad since December.

Look read or no read.. how does a player who hasn't been playing get that last look. It's inexcusable.

The Griz were not gonna let Paolo get downhill. They were gonna live with leaving us open on the perimeter.

Now we have to steal one of the next 2 games, which pretty much means win against PHX because winning a b2b at DAL is unrealistic to another level.

I would've rather had Wagner in that same spot Ingles was in and Ingles on the fn bench.

I get that it was the "right" read, but Ingles had been off the floor for a long time and also hadn't made a jumper all night.

I'd rather Paolo just forced the middy tbh.

8 missed FTs, can't rebound, can't shoot. Shouldn't have even put ourselves in this position.

Unbelievably dumb final play. You end up giving a 3 point shot to Ingles when you’re down by 1. Mosely just told them to throw it to Paolo and see what happens. And…that’s what happens.

Whatever. Probably good in the long run. Rack up some losses now and get back in the lottery. Hopefully with some decision makers who aren’t complete ****.
If you see something suspicious, say something suspicious.

It wasn't a called play for Ingles.

Paolo read the help and immediately passed.

Now if we want to argue he should or shouldn't have done that...

Terrible game overall, can't win with such bad defense and stupid offense

Then they wouldn't have help from there but helped elsewhere. Theres plenty of bricklayers to choose from

I agree but I can't tell you why he decided to pass that.... I wouldn't be able to trust anyone else with that shot other than Franz, paolo should've just rose and shot it
