He's going to be pretty decent assuming health which is a very large assumption. I agree. I was responding more to the next Payton comments Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted October 10, 2019 So in 3 games we've had 3 different offensive fultz performances. Game 1 overly aggressive to the point of sloppiness. Game 2 a really great balance between attacking and just playing within the offense. Game 3 I think he was too passive. Needs to get into the paint more.

ML6 520 Report post Posted October 10, 2019 So the Hawks broadcast mentioned Fultz had a procedure for TOS. Part of me thinks they just misspoke or had faulty info. But then I think about the Magic’s Fultz media parade to start training camp and it sure as hell would make a lot of sense... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustBeCool 1 Report post Posted October 10, 2019 53 minutes ago, Captain said: After last night, what do you guys think of Fultz 3 point form? Horrible and jerky, he's not smooth at all. It looks like set shots from beyond the arc are very difficult for him. Why? I am not sure. It could be the shoulder being stiff or maybe he just has to workout his shooting form for consistency. Any other shots (fadeaways, floaters, pull ups) are all fine and pretty smooth for the most part. *EDIT* I imagine that not being able to shoot correctly because of muscles/nerve issues for months (in this case almost two years) would affect your shooting form and it will take a while to get back to normal if hes just recently healthy again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So it was the most shot he has taken in a year. I do agree. He needs to take every open shot to get comfortable - especially in preseason. vs 2017 summer league he is not as comfortable as he was coming out of college. He is still very rusty.

J-Mac 80 Report post Posted October 10, 2019 I kind of have a similar problem that Fultz does when he shoots. I think it's just all mental, because when I shoot I'm so focused on the mechanics people would tell me my shot has a hitch to it. But I wouldn't notice, when I see Fultz shoot I feel like he so focused on the mechanics it makes it difficult to shoot off the dribble, but in a catch in shoot situation where he can set his feet I feel like he'll do ok. Like in his fts he had no issues hitting them, and also when it comes to those driving fade away shots it's just reps and routine hes so used to doing that it looks smoother (same thing for me). So with proper training and more reps next offseason it should improve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We can not keep having every defense player in the paint because he keeps passing up OPEN looks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
