Paolo is the worst decision maker. Seriously awful.

Garland and Mitchell are small guards and bad defenders, ubforunately we don't have anybody to exploit it at all

Well because they can't score the ball, lmao... The team can't make shots. You want to put in guys that complete shrink the floor and completely clog shutdown the lane?

With all due respect, AB would spread the floor more than Fultz and Goga would be able to get a rebound.


They wouldn't even bother guarding either guy :lol:

They'd just double team Paolo and Franz and they wouldn't even be able to get to the rim and create with Mobley and Allen in there.

That's a death kneel for the offense.

For all the 3s we have endured from the other teams this season, I feel like we're owe like 1 game where our 3s should be falling. Just to balance it out. :)

Suggs has been our 2nd most important player (outplaying Franz or Paolo most nights the last few months).

We are COOKED!!!

4 straight possessions from Paolo, 2 TOs and 2 missed buckets. Man, that is part of Clevelands run here. He can't do that.

He's forcing passes to players that are just not open. Also nobody is getting open on their cuts because they are clogging the paint because nobody is worried about us shooting. Also the cuts seem a bit half-assed mostly.
