Banchero should be able to come into the second half as a new man

I give them maybe a 5% chance of pulling this out. They’re certified asś on both sides of the floor and Paolo is on the wacky tabacky.

They just need to clean up the turnovers and Paolo needs to be more decisive and assertive. Make a decision and go.

The wings need to impede the drivers man. This is horrible perimeter defense.

The center is being pulled due to the wings not staying infront of their guys.


Yeah. Also can’t get easy rebounds or contest straight up. A whole bitch. No reason for being big.

Worst defense we played in the whole series this quarter. Even Isaac & Suggs were horrible at that end.

The only thing I know about this team is that they usually don’t quit, so let that be true in the second half.

Paolo has regularly played alot better in the 3rd quarter after slow starts

Theyre guarding him differently this game, expect coach & Paolo to adjust accordingly

This is why basketball is so weird, Paolo was unstoppable the last game and now he's 2-6 and 4 to

And realgm darling Suggs still has more tos

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.
