He should try using that release from above his head. I'm willing to try anything from him now at this point.

Wcj and Paolo are simply not it as a frontcourt pairing. Paolo/Goga or Paolo/JI so much better balance.

Never thought this in my life, you just complaining

Nah, I've thought about it too. There are times that he does nearly the same 'hold the ball on the hip, take a deep breath, and then stare at the rim for 5 seconds before shooting' Giannis routine.

Caleb Houston probably take the shortest time. Once the refs give him the ball, he dribbles it 3 times and shoot.

People just get the wrong impression about guys getting "featured" offensively.

Outside of Paolo and Franz who obviously get the basketball a ton and initiate most of the sets, nobody else gets "featured" to any sort of significant level.

Field goal attempts by the non-Paolo/Franz guys are pretty much entirely predicated on other factors - how well the ball is moving, what kind of coverage the defense is playing, whether or not the Magic are forcing turnovers and getting out in transition, whether or not the Magic are getting offensive rebounds, etc.

I would bet money he isn't.

What a crazy run to end the half

Post #312 » by **ChosenSavior** » Wed Feb 7, 2024 1:48 am

Gotta continue to exploit Rozier on the mismatch in the 2nd half

Post #313 » by **Knightro** » Wed Feb 7, 2024 1:49 am

This Miami team, despite their talent, is really not that good offensively.

Stop turning it over. Stop giving up offensive rebounds. Stop missing free throws. Just do those three things in the 2nd half and this game is infinitely winnable.

Like i still have no idea what WCJ is. Hes not a shooter. Not a defender. Doesnt pass or create. Hes not an energy/effort guy. Deceptively bad at getting contested rebounds. Doesnt come up big in the clutch. Not a fan favourite. What is he?

Like atleast we know what Goga and JI are. Their role is clear as day.

I disagree, AB navigates screens better than anyone on the team it's one of his strengths.

I think shadrock is praising AB, too. We can't afford AB Stan on AB Stan violence, we need to stay focused on the real enemy (soul)

Great end to half , let’s smother them in the third and dominate

Nice fight back. Miami isn't good enough offensively, the death lineup will massacre them. Just keep it somewhat close going into the 4th.
