Why can't we shoot on the road?
we are 50 from 3 and 48 from 2 so far.
Bricking wide open 3's
All of them ahve been wide open and we hit 50%. That isn;t our problem. We should be shutting this Dallas team down.

Ayton's contests on the perimeter look like they are just for show.
What do you want him to do jump into the shooter and get the automatic foul? He’s making them shoot over a fully outstretched 7 footer. That’s tough to do no matter who you are.

Feel like Paul is pacing himself for a big 4th quarter but don’t know if we can wait that long. He needs to start asserting himself offensively.

I really need to know what is going on with Chris Paul. He is nowhere near himself.
He hasn;t missed a shot. He does have 2 TOs, but that doesn't worry me too much through 1 half.

Agreed, but it just look like he is moving half-speed.

Yeah I don’t get this criticism, especially since his close outs have been good so far. He is not gonna stop them all.

You're right. He just needs to anticipate it better. Everyone knows Luka loves the step back from that exact spot. It feels like he shoots a minimum of 5 a game from there.

Alight, we're cooked if they're sleeping on an inbound play.
