Its going to be a short contest if we can't make any open 3s and they make every 3 they take.

Yeah.. we’re pretty much done for. Boys must be looking forward to going home and sleeping in their own beds tonight

Fultz is just not cutting it. He's over dribbling, and his dribbles low to the floor, surrounded by several defenders, causes him to hold on to the ball too long which most times result in a turnover.

The thing with Markelle is that he’s going to look significantly better when he’s playing with shooters. There’s no reason to respect our shooters this series, so there’s no spacing, meaning his strengths of dribbling through the lane and creating don’t exist and actually become weaknesses because it’s too congested. Our lack of perimeter shooting is killing us

Shouldn't that have been a charge first by Lopez--before the contact by Iwundu?

It’s an obvious charge. Hopefully they get it right after the challenge, but it’s Tony Brothers running the crew and he’s as awful as NBA refs get

That's true but also Fultz does some sloppy things with the ball. He picked it up and brought it real low in the lane at the start of this game which lead to a turnover. Hes had a bunch of ball handling turnovers in the bubble where he's had the ball poked away from behind or just flat out lost the handle. If we're being honest he handles like a guy who just blew by guys at every level (which he did until now) and so didn't have to worry about handling in tight spaces or intricate dribble moves to get out of congestion. He could learn a lot from DJ Augustin to be honest.

We were both right.  ;)
