The chemistry with these 5 is pretty clear to see. Lots of cutting and lots of ball movement. These 5 are just playing very well with each other right now.

He's got to tighten up the structure of the form on his J.. a lot of times when he shoots off of scramble plays it's a little too loose. But the good thing is he's never going to lose confidence and stop shooting so he can keep getting up nice in rhythm reps.

Suggs form looks probably the nicest behind Houstan or Jett, one day those will go in lol. Everybody else has a weird hitch (Fultz, Harris slightly) or weird form (Okeke, Isaac, Ingles) or not aesthetically pleasing releases (Paolo a little late, Black push shot, Franz is fine but looks very mechanical).

Come on guys! Just took a “bathroom break” at work to check on the game. Needless to say, nice box score at half! Keep it up men.

Good half.... Need to get the fouling under control... Just be solid without fouling.... Everybody contributing and the ball isn't sticking... As long as we can keep a good enough cushion and don't go through any offensive lulls this might be a dub

Yeah they just play basketball at a fast speed.. no hitches. The team is going to be a defensive minded team that runs a lot and Paolo and Franz will carry the half court offense which is plenty.

I don't know how right this is but seems like he always makes the first couple then starts bricking them all.

It just gets loose sometimes. But hey the guy is going to keep working hard at it so he should be able to get better and better each year.

People don’t see his value because nobody watches the Magic. He does everything that you want that doesn’t show up in a box score. He’s the exact opposite of an empty stats guy like Jalen Green.

His value is winning basketball games by any means necessary.

That's because of how hard he plays.. you can't use aggression to help you shoot you know what I mean? It's a finesse skill.

He has to learn to meter himself. When you go 100 mph all game and start to tire, the things that require perfection start to suffer.

He's young so the hope is he gets better about pacing energy use, till then, 25-30 mpg seems best to utilize him to the fullest
