Paolo needs to take 2 weeks off and focus on getting in shape

AB doesn't know how to play with both Franz and Paolo on the floor.

Paolo and Franz are the playmakers

So what you are saying is... there is no place for AB here?

If Paolo would concentrate on facilitating this game that would be great.

Yeah Goga blocked/challenged that but Paolo was just watching the Spurs get it back

He is almost there. All Star break starts on Valentine’s Day. Paolo just has to get through next week.

I gotta imagine even Paolo’s mom is not happy with his defense and tells him about it

Not watching of course. But want to remind everyone wemby was not good at all last night in Charlotte.... And they literally traded away all there central lol... But here he comes being the superstar against Orlando...

Nah, Paolo needs to learn how to do something more than just play iso ball and hunt for fouls. He needs to learn how to play off the ball. Needs to learn how to pick and roll. Needs to learn how to play defense. Just needs to learn how to round out his game.

When his shots aren’t falling all these things become more glaring. When they are falling it’s easy to forget because he can be unstoppable.

[Idiosyncratic]

They are giving Paolo cushion on that middy and he is dribbling into a harder more contested middy.

I think Paolo is not happy with his defense but he doesn’t know what to do to get better. He needs to work with someone this off season.

Paolo's +- tonight must be rough

" Son, you aren't doing too well. Try your best ok? Now where is my cut from them checks? "

I would never give Gary Harris run over Jett. Dude shows up when he wants and isn't good anymore anyway. The .1% chance of developing Jett has to be worth more right?

[basketballRob]

Paolo is taking bad shots and losing his man on defense.

-5 so far. Cole is the worst at -13. AB leads the team with +10.

Harris is going to be this year's Fultz. Mosely is always going to play him over Jett.

Does Paolo ever box out on rebounds?
Its basic skills, he has to do something on defense.
