IQ got called for a flagrant foul for doing exactly that last year against AD. Let's see what happens here...

Love Tony laughing at Darko, “Oh, you’re serious bout this?”

davion needs more props. his poa defense has allowed us to stick to our defensive system. no scrambling since he is fighting over and around picks.

Barnes becoming a shooter overnight isn't a reasonable ask but what are Dick and Barrett's excuses?

Scottie was a top-15 player last season when he had a 3pt shot for a month.


it's just like Siakam, when the 3 is falling it elevates them into another tier.



he just needs to be a threat. As long as he makes around 35% thats good enough. Teams have to take that seriously, that will open up a lot.

IQs a sieve. He's going to come muck that up really quickly.

If we keep playing like this, forget the play in. We're going to the finals, we may never lose again.

If he limits himself to stationary and corner 3s he could hit that benchmark. 35% is actually low in the current league. He needs at least 38% on his volume.

Dick must have fouled him with his face.
