Franz is working like a horse, yet all the momentum gets killed by Coles brick factory

Paolo back in the game. Time to hold the ball and burn 75% of every shot clock.

If this is the type of player he is, we have a problem on our hands. We need a 2nd perennial all-star next to Paolo not a guy that can sneak into one or two.


The bigger issue is one that fans probably aren't going to want to hear or be willing to accept.

The way Cole is shooting, I'm surprised he's even hitting the rim.

I’m not saying Franz isn’t a good player.

But you can’t disappear for half’s at a a time and drop off a cliff offensively for 20 games straight as a first or second option.

It's as if Orlando can't figure out that it's open for a reason lol.

So is this just a case of "one team is hitting their shots and the other is not" or is there more going on here?
