Euroclydon Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 It's not that they are taking threes it's who takes them. I want Parker taking more than X. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euroclydon Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 Instead of X running to a corner or soot not being guarded why not have him set a pick for someone else to flash or go to the lane force them to rotate and hit the open guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much more enjoyable than 5 minutes of frantically good play followed by 15 minutes of turnover infested drudgery. Sigh........ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others, including you, can talk better about his defense. but to me he seems to bring good effort and energy. Just having his ability to hit threes has to be addressed by the other team, which has to help TJD. Our overall energy and focus is not great at the moment. btw.

Inequality Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 This right here is why I don’t get the 2 unit crap. Play who fits the dang profile for the game. Or just have one game plan and hope the game comes to you. Ffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
