Holland shot well against us last year too from what I remember. Not sure why he's been so wide open on every shot.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.
- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

Bane passing up open 3's is shocking to say the least

I mean this is what we envision for Paolo at his size. Rebounds and point forward type play on offense. I feel like his unselfishness and willingness to find the open man instead of settling for mid range shots is going to be key. Making a huge difference in this game.

Also Bane needs to just keep firing 3s. I don't need to see him passing up open 3s to drive in uncontrolled.

I’ll keep saying it - our passes to shooters leaves a lot to be desired. Shots are falling tonight and the ball is moving better than it has in a while, but guys are still jumping to catch passes from sailing over their heads or reaching to catch a pass and it’s a pure rhythm killer.

While Paolo is playing amazing when he gets guys open they really need to starting making shots

If we could just replace Tyus with a high volume 3-pt shooter, we'd be set.

Good showcase of how important free throw shooting is. We've outplayed them pretty soundly in every area, but they have made free throws and we are crap again at the line.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

Bane looks like he is falling forward every time he drives.

Just once can we get the review to upgrade it to a foul in our favor lol
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.
