Who care? If we had 4 first round picks to offer, we would had give them up for Mikal in a heartbeat cause he's a Philly guy and belongs in a Sixers uniform. It was the biggest mistake ever made by Colangelo. Also biggest mistake by the Suns for tossing in Mikal along with 4 first for KD = 8 first round picks value.

Best 3&D wing when the game is on the line.

Plus we historically draft better in the second round anyway.

Great lovely voice you shared! Here is one that should go well with this baseless thread attached video on a broken jump shot seemingly created by a Mule towards a Star

one thing i noticed is it seemed like his "shot" was mainly only different on the stand still catch and shoot - he had the hitch and slow release and minimal jump. last few games most of his shots he is actually jumping and releasing quicker - not really taking "set" shots other than maybe a few corner ones that were still somewhat rushed.

to me his actual jump shot looked fine in the mid range or when he was pulling up off the dribble etc. it was just the set shot that looked weird/slow - and he's just not even really taking those now.

My theory is that he was making modular changes in practice that he never intended to use in game settings.

i think he was trying out a new set shot so he wouldn't have to jump as much to prevent injuries etc.

This is like the third time he's tweaked his shot and the NBA online discourse freaks out every time a practice video is shown :lol:

First 9 games, Mikal is shooting 31.7% from three on 7.0 3pa/g

He leads the team in 3pt attempts

Prior to the Pacers game last night (where he went 0 for 6), he was shooting 35.1% on 7.1 3pa/g

So if he is going to be the high volume shooter on our team, he needs to be above 35%

Ideally he should be over 37-38%

The Nets are laughing all the way to the bank after they fleeced the Knicks.

For someone who is tasked to shutting down the opposing team TOP player, Mikal deserves some slack. He is better defensively than any player on the C's who won the championship with defense.

His shot is broken, he can't make any threes from outside the corners.
