True, but I can also see a playoff team really exposing that as well. Maybe that will force him to work on it.

Magic let Toronto hang around but they take care of business again against another sub .500 team.

I feel like we haven't played well in a while, and we're like 15-5 in the last 20.

A scoring SG like Trent is what we should seek over Cole.

Post #227 » by **SOUL** » Sat Mar 16, 2024 1:56 am

5-15 and 6 turnovers for Paolo

some nice plays though

Guy just murders his TS% after a good game lol

Fultz is definitely taller than Suggs. Wouldn't have expected that.

i'm sure paolo knows where he needs to improve, if he's exposed in that way? good, sometimes that's what it takes to get someone to lock in....thankfully though we got a guy that wants to be great

Went 1/2 if FTs twice this game. Future Magician right there.

Paolo is up to like 84% FT in March, I credit Dennis Scott for moking him on FT shooting

We’ve seen each of those 3 have *those games* where they just don’t have it going and then get in their heads about it. But let’s be real - Franz has WON in a championship environment. Paolo has been clutch in the 4th numerous times for us. They’ll be just fine.

We're 2 games up on 6th place Indiana and a .5 behind NY for 4th.

JI with 20 minutes

Suggs' last 3 games: 12-24 from 3... wow

Optimus_Steel · Post #239 » by **Optimus_Steel** » Sat Mar 16, 2024 2:50 am

Nice road win. That was a big last 4 mins of the 3rd quarter in which Paolo dominated. Franz kept it afloat in the first half.

Grant Trent Jr clearly auditioning for WePark. Even split fts like someone mentioned, dude fits in well lol. Need that type of 3pt scoring.

JI is 8/13 his last 3 games. 35.4% for the season.
Suggs 40% for the season.
Paolo 36% for the season
Black 39%.
WCJ 40%.

These are decent number for what are supposed to be our weakest 3pt shooters.

Last 15 games we're 8th in 3pt%.
11th in the league at 37.3% in since Jan 1st (35 games). Vs. Worst in the league at 33.2% before Jan 1st (32 games).

We've seen a lot of improvement in 3pt% lately. We just need Cole and especially Franz to figure it out.
